DisclosureAI-generated illustration: the face is based on the site owner's own photos; the body, equipment and background are generated and do not represent his real physique or training records. Tool: built-in image_gen.
Frames were checked by a professional reviewer for movement; follow the written steps and qualified coaching. The image does not depict a real physique or training record.
Steps
- 01
Stand with the feet hip-width apart, hands on the hips or hanging at your sides.
- 02
Take a long step back with one leg onto the toes while bending both knees to descend, keeping the front shin roughly vertical.
- 03
Bring the rear knee close to the floor without banging it down, and keep the torso upright.
- 04
Drive through the front foot to stand up and bring the rear leg back in; then switch sides, or complete the prescribed reps on the same side first.
Common mistakes
- The front knee caving clearly inward.
- Too short a step, so the front knee travels well past the toes and feels compressed.
- Leaning the torso forward or swaying side to side and losing balance.
Before logging, know the load basis
This exercise is logged as:
The log page labels the basis next to the input. Different bases are never compared directly or merged into one personal best.
Substitutions
Reviewed and published general substitutions. Use one of these when the station is taken, the equipment is missing, or the movement does not feel right.
- This exercise can replaceDumbbell Forward Lunge
When it applies: Use when stepping forward bothers the knees or at home without weights; stepping back is easier to control. (AI-assisted translation, pending review)
Different load basis — re-confirm the weight instead of converting it.
Each substitution is signed off by a reviewer. Program-specific substitutions are offered in the training page instead.
