Key Teaching Points:

- 2. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
- 3. Step length determines demand — longer step increases glute load, shorter increases quad.
Regression:
Use a split-squat with the rear foot elevated on a low surface to reduce the balance demand.
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.
