1. Starting Position: - Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart. - Engage your core and keep your back straight. - Extend your arms in front of you at shoulder height, with your elbows slightly bent.
2. Movement: - Step back with your right foot into a lunge position, lowering your hips until your left thigh is parallel to the ground and your right knee is just above the floor. - As you step back, pull your arms back towards your body, bending your elbows and squeezing your shoulder blades together. This mimics a rowing motion.
3. Return: - Return to the starting position by stepping your right foot forward and straightening your arms back to shoulder height. - Repeat the movement on the other side by stepping back with your left foot and pulling your arms back.
4. Repetitions: - Perform 10-15 repetitions on each side, aiming for controlled and precise movements.
Tips: - Make sure to keep your front knee aligned with your ankle during the lunge. - Focus on maintaining balance and stability throughout the movement. - Keep your movements smooth and avoid rushing to ensure proper form and reduce the risk of injury.
