Starting position: Stand with feet together. Hold the weight at the center of the chest, with elbows tight to the ribs.
Procedure: Step backward with one leg to enter a lunge position. Bend both knees at a depth appropriate for your ability and needs. Push through the ground with the front leg to return to the starting position.
Coaching Key: Keep your chest tall and weight primarily on your front leg, and prevent your front knee from collapsing to the inside.
Feel it: Working your glutes, quads, hamstrings, and calves.
