Banded Taps For Glutes: Good Form Vs Bad Form

Band resisted multidirectional taps is an awesome exercise for the glutes. This is an exercise that most people do incorrectly. If you are performing the exercise correctly it will not feel too easy. ⁣ ⁣

In the video below I highlighted some common mistakes people make, and showed what TO do. I could’ve been WAY more dramatic with my bad form. ⁣ ⁣

Here are some other tips that will help: ⁣ ⁣ ⁣

✅ There should be resistance in the band for 100% of the exercise.⁣ Do not allow the band to lose resistance. Many make this mistake.⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣

✅ Get into a partial squat stance. Maintain this position for the duration of the exercise.⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣

✅ On the planted side, form a tripod base by placing your weight on the back portion of your foot, and the base of your big and baby toes. Pretend you are suctioning or screwing your foot to the floor. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣

✅ On the planted side, do not allow your knee to fall inside or outside of your foot. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣Lightly press your leg out against the band and while keeping the knee in line with the toes. ⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣

✅ Keep your core braced (360 degree brace).⁣⁣⁣ ⁣

⁣⁣✅ Aside from the moving leg, the rest of your body should remain in a fixed position for the duration of the exercise.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣

✅ Generally, having the band around the knees is the easiest, and around the feet the most difficult. ⁣
