EQUIPMENT: BAND&LOW EXECUTION: ALTERNATING VARIANT 01
A.K.A. Band Lunge

Anchor a band at floor level, face away from the anchor point, and grab the handles. Step forward so that there's a high degree of tension in the band. Start in a standing position, holding the handles down at your sides, with the band tight and running behind you. Step one foot back into a reverse lunge, then stand back up to return to the start position. Alternate legs every other rep.

EQUIPMENT: BARBELL VARIANT 02

Place the bar on your back and step out away from any obstacles that might get in the way of this exercise. Start out with Both feet together. Step backward with one leg keeping the other stationary at the starting point. Reach out behind you with your back leg and drop your knee to the ground while your front leg bends at 90 degrees. Push from the back leg but primarily using the front leg for most of the movement to come back up to the starting point.
