Coaching cues
- Face the anchor; hold handles lightly for balance; stand on one leg
- Hinge at the hip — extend the back leg as the trunk lowers
- Use the TRX only for balance; the hip hinge should be driven by the hamstring and glute
- Drive back up through the stance heel; squeeze the glute at lockout
Common faults 2
