Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
- 2. Back knee lowers with control — tap the floor gently, do not crash.
- 3. Step length determines demand — longer step increases glute load, shorter increases quad.
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:
Add dumbbells, increase step height, or progress to a deficit reverse lunge.
Common Problems:
Torso collapsing forward — reinforce upright chest and a strong brace before the step.
