Side-Step L Pose

Side-Step L Pose (Plyometrics)

Positioning

1. Starting Position: Stand straight with your feet shoulder-width apart. Keep your arms relaxed at your sides.

2. Engage Core: Tighten your abdominal muscles to maintain stability throughout the exercise.

Movement Instructions

1. Step to the Side: Shift your weight onto your right leg and take a big step to the left with your left leg. Ensure your left foot lands flat on the ground.

2. L-Shape Arm Position: As you step, raise your right arm straight up above your head while keeping your left arm bent at a 90-degree angle at your side. Your body should form an "L" shape.

3. Hold the Position: Pause for a moment in this position, engaging your core and ensuring your balance.

4. Return to Start: Step back to the starting position by bringing your left foot back to meet your right foot and lowering your right arm.

5. Repeat: Perform the movement on the other side by shifting your weight onto your left leg, stepping to the right with your right leg, and raising your left arm above your head.

Tips

• Maintain a steady and controlled motion throughout the exercise to avoid losing balance.

• Keep your back straight and avoid leaning forward or backward.

• Focus on your breathing; inhale as you step to the side and exhale as you return to the starting position.
