Shifting exercise: Lunge forwards alternating

Individual work

Lunge forwards with your arms supported on your hips, folded across your chest or in front of you. Bend the front (and back) leg to approximately a right angle, then move the back leg forwards into a new lunge (assume the starting position on the other side). In this way, move forwards with continuous lunges (the back knee touches the floor briefly with each lunge).

Attention:
Always keep the front knee behind the tip of the foot and centred over the foot. Distribute your weight over the entire front foot. Keep an upright posture (tense torso), push your front knee outwards (do not fold inwards).

Lighten:
Lower your upper body less (greater angle at the knees).

Harden:
Additional weight (on the shoulders, with hanging arms or in a forward or upright position).
