Instructions & Biomechanical Cues
1. Stand tall with a barbell resting on your upper back, feet hip-width apart, and core engaged. 2. Step forward with your right foot, lowering your body into a lunge until your front knee is at a 90-degree angle and your back knee hovers just above the ground. 3. Keep your chest up and back straight throughout the movement, ensuring your front knee stays aligned over your ankle. 4. Push through your right heel to return to the starting position, bringing your right foot back next to your left. 5. Repeat the lunge with your left leg, alternating sides for the desired number of repetitions.",
