How to perform

Follow these steps to perform the exercise correctly:

1

Starting Position

Stand tall with your feet hip-width apart. Keep your chest up, shoulders back, and core braced.

2

Stepping Forward

Take a large step forward with one leg. Your front foot should land flat, and your back heel should lift off the ground.

💡 Step far enough that your front shin stays vertical when your knee is bent — too short and the knee shoots forward.
3

Lowering

Lower your body by bending both knees to roughly 90°. Your front knee should stay directly over your ankle, and your back knee should hover just above the ground.

4

Returning

Push through your front heel to return to the starting position. Squeeze your glute at the top, then repeat on the other leg.

Form tips

🧠

Keep your torso upright — resist the urge to lean forward over your front leg.

👁

Front knee tracks over your second toe — don't let it cave inward.

Land softly on your front foot, don't slam it down.

🫁

For extra glute activation, take a slightly longer stride.
