Tips

- Step at a 45-degree angle to target the inner thigh and glute medius more effectively. - Ensure your front knee tracks directly over your ankle, not collapsing inward. - Keep your torso as vertical as possible to maintain a straight line through your spine. - Drive through your front heel to return to the starting position.
