Muscle outlines from Body Muscles by Ivan Vulović, Apache 2.0 — regrouped and recoloured for Muscle Train.
Extend your knee and hip by driving through your heel, lifting onto the box. Bring the trailing foot up to meet the working foot. Pause briefly at full extension. Step down, leading with the trailing foot, then the working foot. Maintain balance and repeat.
To maximize power and stability, focus on driving through the heel of your working foot as you extend your leg, ensuring a strong push-off point. Keep your knee aligned over your toes throughout the movement to prevent strain and maintain proper form. Engage your core and keep your chest lifted to stabilize your torso and promote a balanced posture. Avoid using momentum from your trailing leg to initiate the movement, as this can compromise control and reduce the effectiveness of the exercise. Throughout the entire exercise, consciously maintain a level pelvis to prevent excessive arching or tilting of your hips, which can lead to imbalances.
