Instructions

1. Start by standing tall with your feet shoulder-width apart and your hands in front of you at chest height for balance.

2. Shift your weight onto your left foot and take a step back with your right foot, lowering into a reverse lunge. Your right knee should hover just above the floor.

3. Push through your left heel to bring your right foot back to the starting position while simultaneously driving your right knee up and forward to perform a high kick. Your right leg should be as straight as possible during the kick.

4. Bring your right foot back down to the ground softly and transition into the next reverse lunge to keep the movement fluid.

5. Continue for the desired number of reps and then switch to the left leg, performing a reverse lunge and kick with your left leg.

Make sure to maintain your balance and keep a brisk pace, while also keeping each movement controlled. The forward kick should be strong and swift but controlled to prevent injury.
