Instructions
1. Stand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, arms raised and in front of you with fists near your chin.
2. Take a step to the right, bending your right knee and pushing your hips back to go into a side lunge. Your left leg should stay straight.
3. As you lunge to the right, extend your left arm forward as if punching, while keeping the other hand by your face.
4. Push yourself back to the starting position, bringing your punching hand back.
5. Repeat the side lunge to the left side, this time extending your right arm.
6. Alternate sides for the designated number of repetitions and sets.
Remember to keep your core engaged, and your back straight throughout the exercise. Transition smoothly from the lunge to the punch to integrate upper body work with the lower body movement.
