Common mistakes
- Letting the band tension round the upper back instead of keeping the chest up
- Stepping back at an angle so the feet end up on the same line and balance is lost
- Standing up by pushing off the rear toes rather than the front heel
Variations
- Hold the band at the chest instead of the shoulders for less tension
- Add a knee drive at the top
