Lean against a wall with your feet out but 1-2 foot. Have the band under you feet and held in your hands.

Slowly slide down into a squat to the point where you can hold the position for 10-30secs. Then lift the band up onto your shoulders for the load. Push down into your heels to generate the quads contraction. Hold this for the prescribed time, making sure you have enough time to stand up again and take the band of for the rest period.
