Resistance Band Duck Walk
Muscles involved
The resistance band duck walk is an incredibly versatile movement that can fit seamlessly into different parts of your workout routine. If you place it at the very beginning during your warmup, it serves as an excellent drill to activate your glutes and quads while priming your hips for heavy lifting. On the other hand, using it at the end of your session as a finisher will deliver an intense muscle burn that completely exhausts your lower body. By keeping constant tension on the resistance band with every short step, you challenge your legs to stay engaged without rest. Knowing when to slot this exercise into your training helps you maximize your performance, whether you need to awaken key muscles or cap off a great workout.
How to do it
1. Place the band around your thighs and slightly bend your knees. 2. Advance in short steps, maintaining tension in the band. 3. Briefly pause at each step, avoiding your knees collapsing inward. 4. Continue the path, keeping your torso firm and your hip stable.
