Push your leg out forwards in a standing position and lunge backwards alternately (left) ► front kick & reverse lunge

Individual work

Stand shoulder-width apart, one leg (left) slightly backwards, gaze/face and upper body facing forwards, arms hanging beside the body. Raise one leg (left) and kick it out in the direction of your gaze (kick movement forwards), bend your arms at the same time and move your hands to head height. Lower your upper body as you bring your free leg back, bend your supporting leg and bring your free leg backwards, both hands touching the floor (lunge position - similar to starting a sprint). Alternate between the two positions (kick forwards and lunge backwards) with a high cadence.

Attention:
Do not fall backwards with your upper body when kicking your leg away. Keep your posture upright when lunging.

Lighten:
Push your leg out less high or far back.

Harden:
Push your leg out higher; add weight to your leg.
