    Movement Skills: Lunge with rotation

    DateThursday, January 14, 2010 at 8:28AM

    Lunge is one of the most fundamental movement patterns. The rotation increases the level of difficulty in terms of balance and coordination. Without an ability to perform a solid lunge, developing the lower body strength and basic patterns such as running is severely compromised.

    1. Forward lunge - no rotation

    2. Forward lunge with rotation

    3. Posterior lunge - no rotation

    4. Posterior lunge with rotation
