Primary muscles: quadriceps
Description: Start the exercise by siting on the edge of a chair. Put the handle of one end of the resistance band on the back leg of the chair. Hook the other end of the resistance band on the foot. Place your feet flat on the floor with a 90-degree angle at your knee joint. This will be your starting position. To begin the exercise lift one foot about six inches off the ground and begin to extend your leg out bringing the knee joint angle close to 180-degrees but not fully locked out. When this point is reached slowly release your leg down. Complete 2-3 sets of 10-15 repetitions on each side.
