• Maintain this position as you lower your hips toward the floor by bending your legs to 90°. Continue down until your left knee nears the floor.
• As you come back up, kick your left leg in front of you as you straighten your right leg, and bring the left leg back into a lunge position.
• Complete the desired number of repetitions and repeat the exercise with your right foot backward.

Useful Tips:
