Instructions

Setup

  • Stand tall with feet hip-width apart on a yoga mat.

  • Engage your core to maintain an upright posture.

Movement

  • Step forward into a lunge with one leg, keeping your front knee aligned with your ankle.

  • As you sink your hips, simultaneously sweep your arms from your sides toward the front, rising to shoulder height.

  • Ensure your back knee hovers just above the mat.

  • Push back to the starting standing position while lowering your arms back to your sides.

  • Alternate your legs with each repetition, maintaining a steady, flowing motion throughout the set.

Key Tips

  • Keep the torso vertical throughout the entire movement.

  • Maintain gaze forward to help balance.

  • Control the pace; this is a mobility and stability exercise rather than a speed drill.
