Steps
SQUATS
Step 1: Stand upright facing the TRX anchor, keeping feet shoulder-width apart; hold the TRX handles and squat down towards the floor.
Step 2: From the squat position, proceed to come back up in a controlled manner.
Step 3: Repeat this movement several times.
LUNGES
Step 1: Stand upright facing the TRX anchor. Hold the TRX handles while keeping the front foot flat on the floor, and the back for is on the ball of the foot.
Step 2: Begin to bring the back knee down towards the floor, maintaining your core engaged, and holding onto the TRX straps.
Step 3: Focus on the stretch in the rear leg hip flexor.
Step 4: Push from both legs to get yourself back up to the starting position.
Step 5: Repeat this movement several times before switching legs.
How to progress the exercise
The back leg can be raised on a bench or ball for a more challenging progression. A hop can also be added to add a more dynamic force element to the movement. A balance disc or BOSU can be added to stand on for a balance challenge.
Additional Information
It is important to make sure that your body weight is equally distributed between both legs, and that the back hip flexor gets the stretch in order to keep its length. Along with this, avoid having the front knee too far forward over the toes.
