TECHNIQUE: Attach a band somewhere low (like the bottom of a weight rack or functional trainer) and straddle over it with the resistance coming from behind. Start with a very good amount of resistance. While controlling the resistance, lower down into a hip hinge and then snap the hips forward by driving the glutes. ADVANTAGES: This move is an easy way to strengthen the hip hinge because it easy to setup and control the amount of resistance and really focus on recruiting the correct muscles. FAULTS: Rounding your back/Not keeping your chest up as you lower into the hinge; SCALING: If your back continues to round, regress by practicing the hinge with a PVC Pipe or dowel. Scale up by increasing the resistance as your power increases.
