Bodyweight Patrick Step from StepBox

The Patrick step from the top of a step box: the free heel reaches forward and down past its edge, so the standing knee bends further.

How to do it

Setup

Standing on one leg on a step box, hands on the hips, the other leg straight over the front edge.

Steps

  1. Bend the standing knee forward over the toes, the heel flat on the box.
  2. Lower until the free heel touches the floor in front.
  3. Drive back up to standing on the box; switch legs after the set.

Common mistakes

Box too high to start: begin low; the height sets how far the knee must travel. Heel of the standing foot lifting: keep it flat. Leaning back to reach the floor: stay tall and let the knee bend.

Breathing

Inhale down, exhale up.
