Good Mornings: Stand on the band with your feet spread shoulder width apart. Place the band behind your neck. Start in a bent over position with a straight back and stand to an upright position.

Squat with Overhead Press: These are done with the band under your feet, standing straight up with arms bent.

Kneeling Glute Kickbacks with Resistance Band: Place the resistance band around one foot and assume an all-fours position. Kick back with the foot that the resistance band is looped around.

The use of bands with these makes it much easier to continually alter the difficulty, so they work for both beginners and advanced trainees.

Lunge with Overhead Tricep Extension: Hold the resistance band with one hand above your head. Grab it with the other hand behind your back. Step into a lunge with the same side of your body that is holding the resistance band overhead (if you are holding it overhead with the right hand, the right leg lunges forward). As you lower, pull the resistance band taut with the overhead hand. As you come out of the lunge, bend your elbow to release the tension on the resistance band.
