- 2. Push the knee out on the descent to ensure it tracks over the toe.
- 3. Back knee lowers with control — tap the floor gently, do not crash.
Regression:
Reduce stride length or use a TRX or wall for balance assistance. Perform a reverse lunge on the spot before adding forward movement.
Progression:
Progress to a walking lunge then a jumping lunge once bilateral mechanics are solid.
Common Problems:
Torso collapsing forward — reinforce upright chest and a strong brace before the step.
