Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
  2. 2. Keep the torso upright; a slight forward lean is acceptable but avoid collapsing.
  3. 3. Keep the pelvis level — avoid hip hiking on the supporting side.
  4. 4. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.

Regression:

Use a split-squat with the rear foot elevated on a low surface to reduce the balance demand.

Progression:

Progress to a walking lunge then a jumping lunge once bilateral mechanics are solid.

Common Problems:

Front knee traveling too far forward — cue a big step and emphasis on the vertical shin.
