Instructions
Starting Position: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and arms at your sides.
Performing the Side Lunge: Begin by taking a large step to the side with your right foot. Bend your right knee to push your hips back and lower into a side lunge. Keep your left leg straight, your right thigh should be parallel to the floor. Keep your left foot firmly planted, and do not let your right knee go past your toes.
Adding the Windmill: As you lunge to the right, rotate your torso to the left and bring your left arm down towards the floor next to your right foot. Simultaneously, raise your right arm straight up towards the ceiling, keeping your eyes on your hand.
Returning to Starting Position: Push off with your right foot to return to the initial standing position. Lower your arms to your sides as you come back up.
Repeat on the Other Side: Perform the same movement on the opposite side, stepping out with the left foot and reaching down with the right hand while lifting the left arm.
