All you need is 20 minutes or less and your obé Resistance Hip Bands to get in a solid workout. Ahead, Melody, an instructor from obé, shared her favorite resistance band exercises you can do right now!

Start with a few light stretches, then follow each movement as instructed on the next page. You can repeat this series three to four times.

Squat

1 minute
“Place the band directly above your knees. Begin with feet slightly wider than hips, bend the knees, and sit hips directly down and back. Straighten your legs and come back to stand. Make sure your knees are pressing out into the band and not collapsing in.”

Lateral Steps

1 minute
“Place the band around your calves. Begin in a half squat position with knees softly bent, hips hinging back, and legs hip-distance apart. Alternate taking a small step to the left, then a small step to the right. Be sure your legs remain at least hip-distance apart the entire time with toes pointing straight forward.”

Diagonal Tapbacks

30 seconds left side/30 seconds right side
“Place the band around your calves. Begin in a half squat position with knees softly bent, hips hinging back, and legs hip-distance apart. Keeping your left knee softly bent and stable, tap your right leg to the back right diagonal corner, then return to start. Repeat on the other side. Try to keep the standing leg still the entire time.”

Staggered Deadlift

30 seconds left side/30 seconds right side
“Place the band around your calves. Step your left foot approximately six inches behind your right leg hip-distance apart with your hands behind your head and elbows wide. Keeping your spine straight, hinge your hips back so that your chest is parallel to the floor. Drive into your right heel and squeeze your right glute to return to stand.”

After you’ve completed your workout, make sure to properly stretch out your body. You can also use fitness tools like the Maji Sports Trigger Point Ball to release and relieve any knots and tension in your muscles. It’s like foam rolling but allows you to target more specific pain points.
