Begin with your feet set between hip and shoulder distance apart. With your hips and shoulders squared straight ahead, place a wall ball high on top of one shoulder. While maintaining the width of your feet, take a long step back, aiming to evenly distribute your bodyweight across both legs before descending into the bottom of the lunge. Your back knee will touch at the bottom of the rep directly in line with your hip and shoulder. Your back heel will be off the ground and stacked over the ball of your foot. Your shin should remain vertical, with your knee stacked over your heel. Torso remains vertical throughout.
At the point that your knee touches the floor, drive upward through both legs returning your rear leg and foot back to your standing position, so that your body is back in vertical alignment.
Alternate between left and right legs, as well as, which shoulder you are holding the ball with. Make sure to keep it balanced.
