Exercise Type:

Contraindications:
None
Equipment:
Floor Based
Applicability:
Group
Superset?:
No
Sprint-able?:
Yes

Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Hip flexor of the trailing leg should feel a stretch at the bottom.
  2. 2. Push the knee out on the descent to ensure it tracks over the toe.
  3. 3. Brace core before stepping; stability is set before the weight shifts.

Regression:

Half-kneeling holds focusing on pelvic alignment before progressing to moving lunge variations.

Progression:

Add dumbbells, increase step height, or progress to a deficit reverse lunge.

Common Problems:

Pushing off the back toe to assist the return — ensure all drive comes from the front heel.
