How to do Goblet Squat with Band
You will have to move your legs apart until the resistance band is taut and then lower your body into the squat position. Since you will work against the resistive force of the band, your outer thighs and hips will be strengthened.

Tips
- Do not let your knees cave inward while lowering the weight. Force your knees out throughout the exercise.
- Use a band that is not too strong so that you can get into the normal squat stance. Also, it should not be too light as a rubber band.
