DO SQUATS & LUNGES NOT FEEL QUITE RIGHT??

Maybe you feel off balance? Or they’re causing discomfort in your knees, hips or back? There are tons of factors that could be contributing... but it’s always a great idea to make sure we’re aware of what’s happening with our feet!

  1. Keep em grounded! Distribute your weight evenly across your toes & your heel!

  2. Maintain that as you move ;-)

  3. As you stand up from the squat/lunge, imagine you’re moving the floor away from yourself (instead of the usual perspective of moving yourself away from the floor). This could help you stay grounded AND can improve your power immensely too!

I demonstrate all of the above in this 30sec video.

As always, don’t hesitate to ask me any questions you have!! (And videos really help me see what’s going on!)
