Step-by-step technique

Set a cable pulley or band anchor at about chest height to your left side.

Stand with feet hip-width apart and grip the handle in both hands with fingers laced together.

Straighten your arms out in front of you — resist the band's pull to the left.

Brace your core tightly to maintain a square torso position.

Step back with your right foot into a reverse lunge, keeping your torso upright and arms extended.

Lower your back knee toward the floor while maintaining the anti-rotation resistance.

Drive through your front heel to return to standing.

Complete all reps on one side, then switch the band to the other side and repeat.
