Instructions

1. Stand with your feet hip-width apart.

2. Shift your weight onto your right foot, and lift your left foot slightly off the ground behind you.

3. Keeping your back neutral, hinge at the hips, and begin to lean your torso forward while simultaneously extending your left leg straight back.

4. Lower your torso and raise your extended leg until both are parallel to the floor, reaching your hands toward the ground. This is the single-leg deadlift position.

5. Pause briefly in this balanced position.

6. Bend the knee of your supporting (right) leg while you lower your extended (left) leg back down, placing the left foot down on the floor behind you into a reverse lunge position. Ensure the right knee is above the ankle and not pushing forward beyond the toes.

7. Press through the right heel to return to the starting position, bringing the left leg back slightly off the ground.

8. Perform the desired number of repetitions on one side before switching to the other leg.

Remember to perform the movement with control, keeping your core engaged throughout the exercise to help maintain balance. If you're adding resistance, hold weights in both hands by your sides throughout the movement.
