STRENGTHENS
HAMSTRINGS, GLUTES, QUADRICEPS
STARTING POSITION

dumbbells. Stand tall with your shoulders back and down, and keep your knees
unlocked.
MOVEMENT
Take a large step forward with your right leg, landing on your
right heel with your toes turned out to 1:00 (A). Allow your back leg to relax so that your knee
drops toward the floor. EASY
Pause briefly here with your weight on your right heel.
Push into your right heel to stand up and step forward, returning
to the starting position (B). HARD Immediately step forward onto your left leg and
repeat the movement (C), alternating sides as
you move forward in space.
Why It’s Perfect for
You
Because you are moving forward in space, this exercise mimics the
natural movements of walking and running, strengthening the related muscles. It
puts the ideal amount of good stress on your hamstrings and glutes.
