Reverse Lunge (Leg Kick)
A reverse lunge that ends in a straight-leg kick to hip height as you stand.
How to do it
Setup
Standing tall, arms stretched forward at shoulder height.
Steps
- Lower into a reverse lunge.
- Stand and kick the back leg forward, straight.
- Swing it back into the next lunge.
Common mistakes
Rounding the back to kick higher: hip height is enough, chest tall. Kicking with a bent knee: the leg stays long. Standing heel lifting on the kick: plant the whole foot.
Breathing
Exhale on the kick, inhale stepping back.
