Tips

Maintain a tall torso throughout the movement to prevent rounding of the back and engage your core effectively. Ensure your front knee tracks directly over your toes to protect your knee joint and maximize power transfer. Focus on driving through your front heel as you extend your legs to engage your glutes and hamstrings. Keep your core braced throughout the exercise to stabilize your spine and prevent lower back discomfort. Ensure your front foot remains flat on the ground to distribute weight evenly and avoid rocking or shifting your balance.
