The Banded Donkey Kick will support your core work and help to identify and improve any hip imbalances. Before moving down to the ground on all fours, grab your band and place it around both legs at your knees. Once in position, anchor the band underneath your left knee and lower down to your forearms. Start your kicks one leg at a time, keeping your leg bent at a 90 degree angle as you press up towards the ceiling. At the top of your kick, your knee should be level with your hip and spine. Lightly pulse your knee up and down, feeling your glute muscles engaged and lower back firm and neutral. Come back to all fours to switch the band placement before moving to the other leg.
