Then it’s time to grab a band and get a little more bang for your buck! By standing on the band and pressing outward you are targeting a hard-to-hit area of your body: the outer thighs! If you learn how to do Resistance Band Tick Tock you discover that the band is definitely the way to go! With its versatility and multi-directional options, this one, simple, portable tool is a game changer.

The Resistance Band is one of the most flexible tools available not only in the way you can use it for exercises, but in it’s portability and ease. This band can fit in a small handbag or backpack and taken anywhere; perfect for travel! Take this band on any trip and combine it with some basic cardio moves for a simple, overall fat burn anywhere and anytime! Resistance bands can be used for both lower body and upper body.

Here are the steps to learning Resistance Band Tick Tock:

1) Stand on band with feet shoulder width apart and hold handles next to hip bones.

2) Keep legs long as you press right leg out to the side, then set right foot down and press left leg out to the side. That is a total of one repetition.

3) As you alternate pressing legs side to side be sure to keep your abs tight so your body stays tall and doesn’t “tip” over to the side.

Targets: legs
