Kneeling Side Leg to Kick
On all fours, the bent leg lifts out to the side, then straightens into a kick straight back before coming home.
How to do it
Setup
On all fours, a flat back, weight even on the hands.
Steps
- Raise the knee sideways, still bent.
- From there, kick the leg straight back.
- Bend it in and lower; switch after the set.
Common mistakes
Kicking higher than the torso: the leg stops level. Sinking into the standing hip: push the floor away. Losing the side lift before the kick: open fully, then extend.
Breathing
Exhale on the kick, inhale lowering.
