Instructions
1. Attach the ankle cuff or strap to a low cable pulley and then attach it to one of your ankles.
2. Face the cable machine, holding onto the machine frame or the bar for support, with your feet hip-width apart.
3. Shift your weight onto your stationary leg.
4. Keeping your knee straight, exhale and slowly kick the cuffed leg straight back in a controlled motion. Your torso should lean forward naturally as your leg lifts to allow for a full range of motion.
5. Squeeze your glute at the top of the movement for a moment.
6. Inhale and return your leg to the starting position with control, without letting the weight stack rest between repetitions.
7. Complete the desired number of repetitions on one side before switching the cuff to the opposite ankle and repeating the exercise.
Be sure to maintain good posture throughout the exercise and move in a slow, controlled manner to maximize the engagement of the target muscle group and to minimize the risk of injury. Adjust the weight according to your fitness level to ensure effectiveness while maintaining proper form.
