Lunge with Leg Lift
From a reverse lunge, stand up on the front leg and drive the back knee up to hip height before stepping back again.
How to do it
Setup
Start in a lunge, back knee near the floor, hands at the chest.
Steps
- Rise onto the front leg.
- Drive the back knee up to hip height.
- Step it back into the lunge; switch sides.
Common mistakes
Wobbling on the knee lift: eyes ahead, brace. Leaning back as the knee rises: stay tall over the standing hip. Back knee thumping down between reps: stop it above the floor.
Breathing
Exhale rising, inhale stepping back.
