  1. Leg Motion: Shift your weight onto one leg while bending the opposite knee to lift your heel toward your glutes, performing a controlled hamstring curl.

  2. Arm Motion: Simultaneously, extend the arm on the same side as the lifting leg, punching vertically overhead toward the ceiling.

  3. Return: Lower your foot back to the ground and bring your arm back to your chest level.

  4. Alternation: Quickly switch to the other side, curling the opposite leg and punching the corresponding arm upward.

  5. Flow: Maintain a rhythmic, continuous motion, focusing on controlled breathing and active engagement of the hamstrings and shoulders.
