Bent Knee Back to Side Kick
On all fours, the bent leg kicks back, returns, then lifts out to the side: two moves per rep.
How to do it
Setup
On all fours, hands under the shoulders, knees under the hips.
Steps
- Drive the bent leg back until the thigh is level.
- Bring it in, then lift the knee out to the side.
- Lower and repeat the pair; switch legs after the set.
Common mistakes
Leaning away from the side lift: the torso stays still over the hands. Arching the back on the kick: the thigh stops level. Swinging the leg: pause at the end of each move.
Breathing
Exhale on each lift, inhale lowering.
