Instructions

Setup

Begin in a quadrupedal position (on all fours) with your knees hovering just off the floor, back flat, and core braced.

Movement

  1. Initiate the movement by rotating your torso and hips toward one side.

  2. Pivot your back leg and ground the opposite hand on the floor for support.

  3. Simultaneously, kick the lead leg laterally through the space beneath your chest, extending it fully while balancing on the supporting hand and foot.

  4. Keep your grounded hand directly under your shoulder and maintain a strong, stable core throughout the extension.

  5. Return to the starting quadrupedal position by retracting the leg.

  6. Immediately perform the same sequence on the opposite side.
