How to do it

Press the ball of your suspended foot gently into the handle to stay stable.

  1. 1

    Stand facing away from the suspension anchor with one foot in the handle.

  2. 2

    Step forward with your free leg and lower into a lunge, keeping your torso upright.

  3. 3

    Push through the heel of your front foot to return to the starting position.

  4. 4

    Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching legs.

Expert tip

Keep your front knee aligned with your ankle and avoid it from going over your toes during the lunge. Use your glutes and quads to power back up to the starting position.

Common mistakes

  • ✕Letting the front knee collapse inward
  • ✕Leaning the torso forward during descent
