Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Step length determines demand — longer step increases glute load, shorter increases quad.
  2. 2. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
  3. 3. Front shin should remain as vertical as possible throughout.

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:

Hip hiking on the rear leg — cue level hips and engage the stance-leg glute.
