Instructions

Forward-Backward Duck Walk

  1. Equipment: No equipment needed. Just ensure you have enough space to move forward and backward.

  2. Starting Position:

    • Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.

    • Bend your knees slightly and lower your hips as if starting a squat, keeping your chest up and back straight.

    • Your arms can be held in front of you for balance or placed on your hips.

  3. Movement:

    • Forward Movement:

    • Keep your knees bent and your hips low.

    • Step forward with your right foot, followed by your left foot, maintaining the squat position.

    • Move forward in this low stance, taking small, controlled steps.

  • Backward Movement:

  • Once you reach your desired distance, reverse the movement.

  • Step backward with your right foot, then your left foot, staying low.

  • Keep your core engaged throughout the movement to maintain balance.

  1. Tips:

    • Maintain a steady pace; don’t rush the movements.

    • Keep your knees in line with your toes to prevent strain.

    • Aim to stay as low as possible without compromising form.

  2. Repetitions:

    • Perform the forward and backward walk for about 10-15 steps in each direction, then rest. Repeat for 2-3 sets.
