2. Step forward with your right foot, lowering your hips until both knees are bent at approximately 90 degrees.
3. Ensure your front knee is directly above your ankle and your back knee is hovering just above the ground.

5. Continue alternating legs, maintaining an upright torso and steady pace.
6. Complete the desired number of repetitions or distance.

exercise_detail.tips

• Keep your core engaged throughout the movement to maintain balance.
• Focus on a smooth, controlled motion rather than speed.
• Ensure your front knee does not extend past your toes to protect your joints.
• Use a weight that challenges you but allows you to maintain proper form.
• Breathe steadily, inhaling as you lower and exhaling as you push back up.
• Start with a lighter bag if you're new to this exercise to master the form.
