High Knee – Side Skater

Muscle Group

Glutes, Legs

Anchor Position

Movement Type

Description

The resistance band high knee – side skater mainly increases leg power. However, it is considered a full-body, dynamic workout as it also targets your glutes and adductors of the hip joints. Since you switch off movement between both legs, this exercise also helps offset imbalance and can even prevent lower-body injuries. Learn more about properly executing this exercise with the video above.

Regression

Make this exercise easier by performing stationary high knees (no hops), and then performing side skater.

Progression

Make this movement more challenging by using both battle ropes (“stacking”) or standing farther away from the anchor to increase the tension on the Slastix.
