Keep the knees bent at all times<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Cue: &#8220;Okay guys, for this one, make sure your knees stay bent with the feet facing the floor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Ensure there is not too much resistance on the band<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Cue: &#8220;Make sure there isn&#8217;t too much resistance on the band where it could flick off your feet. If you feel like there is too much resistance, take your hands closer to the ends of the band.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3.
