How to do it
Distribute your weight evenly across both hands to stay balanced throughout each kick.
- 1
Begin on all fours with your hands under your shoulders and knees under your hips.
- 2
Keeping your knee bent at a 90-degree angle, lift one leg out to the side, keeping your hip stable.
- 3
Lower your leg back to the starting position without resting it on the ground and repeat.
- 4
Complete the desired number of repetitions before switching to the other leg.
Expert tip
Maintain a stable core and avoid leaning to the side as you perform the kick to ensure proper form.
