About

This is a workout where you sit down while stretching your feet backwards. As you go down, try to focus on your core muscles so that your body doesn't sway.

How to Backward Lunge

Starting Position

1. Please spread your legs to hip-width apart and place your hands on each side of your waist.

2. Open your chest and straighten your back.

Proper Form

1. Step back with one foot and raise the heel of that foot.

2. Lower yourself until the angle of both knees is 90 degrees.

3. Keep your chest open and your back straight as you return to the starting position.

4. Repeat the same with the opposite leg.

Breathing Technique

Breathe in while going down, and breathe out while going up.

Precautions

1. Please be careful not to lean your upper body forward.

2. When bending your knees, please ensure that the knee of the foot you step forward with does not go beyond the foot.

3. Please make sure that your center of gravity does not lean too far forward.
