Description of exercise Elastic forward leg exercise is a type of leg strengthening exercise that utilizes resistance bands or elastic bands to target the muscles in the legs. It involves standing with one foot on the band and holding the other end of the band with your hands. From this position, you will lift your leg forward, keeping it straight and engaging your thigh muscles. The resistance from the band adds an extra challenge and helps to build strength and stability in the leg muscles.

It is a great exercise for improving balance, flexibility, and overall leg strength.
