Deep Squat with Abduction with FMT

This RNT technique focuses on performing a full deep squat pattern with emphasis on core and glute activation.

Body Parts Targeted: SquatDouble Leg

Starting Position: Symmetrical Stance

Place the point of attachments at knee height and spread the handles about the size of a door apart from each other. Then give the band a twist so that the tubing will cross in front of you.

Step inside and face the point of attachment. Place the foam handles at the outside of the knees. Place your toes straight ahead and your feet about shoulder width apart. Cross arms across chest and start your squat while pushing your knees out but do not allow your feet to rotate out. As you squat down keep your heels down and go as deep as you can go comfortably. Then come back up to the standing position.

For progression, raise hands and extend arms above your head.  For more assistance and resistance, take a step back or
add a heel lift if you are unable to squat deep. Before starting your exercise, please make sure the point of attachment for the tubing is secure.
