...All those skaters!
Skater Lunges!
Stand with your feet hip distance and parallel, your shoulders down and back, your core engaged and your hands on your hips, or by your sides holding dumbbells if you wish.
Maintaining the parallel alignment of your feet, step your right foot out to the side, about a leg distance, and bend your knee into a lunge. Engage your hamstring, glute and core muscles to press your foot back to parallel. Repeat with the other foot and repeat for 2-3 sets of 12-18 repetitions on each leg.
Tips to remember with this exercise:
Keep your feet parallel but to not allow your knee to point out to the side
Maintain your posture
Keep your gaze up and forward
Do not allow your spine to arch, keep your neutral alignment
Focus on the muscles you are engaging
Have FUN!
