Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Step length determines demand — longer step increases glute load, shorter increases quad.
- 2. Drive through the heel of the front foot to return to standing.
- 3. Establish a stable base before adding any dynamic component.
- 4. Shoulders stay stacked over hips — no leaning to one side.
Regression:
Perform a slow step-up onto a low box before progressing to lunges with a full stride.
Progression:
Add dumbbells, increase step height, or progress to a deficit reverse lunge.
Common Problems:
Hip hiking on the rear leg — cue level hips and engage the stance-leg glute.
