Lateral Lunge to Balance

- This is just like our standard Lateral Lunge exercise, however know we are incorporating a more difficult balance aspect to work on our stability.
- Start with your feet close together in a standing position.
- As we step out to the side, get a wide stance with your toes facing forward or slightly outward.
- Knees should be pointing forward as we lunge down.
- Press through your heel to activate your glute as you lower.
- Keep your chest up and core activated to avoid hunching over.
- From our lunge, we want to press all the way back up to our starting position, however you will raise one knees up. We do not want our foot to touch the floor again until we go back into the lateral the lunge.
- To balance, look straight forward, activate your core, keep a straight spine, and engage your supporting leg. Your entire body will need to be connected and working together to maintain a stable position.
