Resistance Band Duck Walk
The Resistance Band Duck Walk targets your lower body while improving stability and strength.
- Begin by placing a resistance band around your thighs, just above your knees.
- Lower into a squat position, keeping your chest up and back straight.
- Step forward with one foot, followed by the other, maintaining the squat position.
- Continue walking forward for a set distance or number of steps.
How to perform the Resistance Band Duck Walk
- Set up. Set up in a stable, balanced starting position appropriate for the Resistance Band Duck Walk using your resistance band.
- Brace and execute. Brace your core, control the descent, and move through a full pain-free range of motion while emphasizing your glutes.
- Reset. Reverse the movement under control and reset between repetitions, keeping your form crisp on every rep.
Coaching cues
- Move with intent — every rep should feel deliberate, not rushed.
- Drive force through your glutes rather than momentum.
- Keep your breathing steady: exhale on the hard part, inhale on the reset.
Common mistakes
- Using too much weight and losing positional control.
- Cutting the range of motion short and missing the target muscle.
- Letting your spine round or hyperextend instead of staying neutral.
Detailed cues, common mistakes, and demonstration video are available in the Fitly app.
