Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Drive through the heel of the front foot to return to standing.
  2. 2. Keep the torso upright; a slight forward lean is acceptable but avoid collapsing.
  3. 3. Push the knee out on the descent to ensure it tracks over the toe.

Regression:

Half-kneeling holds focusing on pelvic alignment before progressing to moving lunge variations.

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.
