- pull up with the assistance of the band
- when you are done, step one foot on the chair or bench & use your hands to remove the band from your knee
- alternate which knee you use for each set to keep it even 

-complete as many reps as possible (AMRAP), but use 5 reps as a minimum goal. If you can’t get 5 reps use a thicker band or 2 bands to double up

Band assisted Pull Up

- Engage your back muscles to hold yourself up & slowly lower down with control 
- step back on the stool to lift up again & repeat

At the end of the workout, complete the cool down in circuit format for 1 set. 

Take your time and stretch any other muscles that may feel tight.

1. Lie down on your back, bend your knees and plant your feet into the ground, with your arms down by your sides and palms facing the floor.
2. Bring one knee up to your chest and grab the outside of your knee with the opposite hand.
3. Pull your knee towards your opposite shoulder while keeping your head, back, and shoulders flat against the floor.
4. Hold for approximately 20 seconds, then lower your foot back to the ground.
5. Repeat the same movement with the opposite leg.

1. Lie face down on the ground, with your quadriceps on top of the foam roller.
2. Cross one ankle over the other to provide more pressure on the quadricep.
3. Use your arms to slowly move your body forward and backward over the foam roller from your hip to your knee to hit all areas of the quadriceps.
4. If you roll over a particular spot that feels extra tight and tender, hold it on that spot for 5-10 seconds to try and work it out.
5. Cross the opposite ankle over the other ankle and repeat on the other quadricep.

Foam Roller Quadriceps Massage (30 sec/leg)

1. Sit on the ground with your legs extended and hands behind you to support your body.
