This exercise is similar to the traditional leg curl, but is done from a standing position. First, secure one end of the exercise bands to any fixed device (e.g. door jam strap). Secure the opposite end around the ankle cuff. A chair, or any stationary object you can hold onto during the exercise is recommended, as it will help with balance. The starting position is with the "working leg" straight and slighly in front of the other leg. Next, lift your foot off the ground slighly and curl your leg until it is parallel to the floor. Slowly return to the starting position and repeat the exercise.
Step 1
Secure exercise bands. Place the "working leg" slightly in front of the other.
Step 2
Curl the leg until it is parallel to the floor.
Step 3
Return to starting position. Repeat the exercise several times.
