Instructions:
- 1Hold a dumbbell in each hand by your sides and stand in front of a step or bench.
- 2Raise your right foot to step up onto the bench, pressing through your heel.
- 3Once your right foot is on the bench, push your body up until your right leg is straight.
- 4Slowly lower your body back to the starting position by lowering your left foot back to the floor.
- 5Repeat the exercise on the left leg.
Tips:
- Keep your chest up and maintain balance throughout the movement.
- Make sure your stepping leg's knee is in line with your foot.
- Try to press through the heel of your stepping foot to engage your glutes more.
- Avoid using your back foot to assist in the exercise. The power should come from your front foot.
