Multiplanar Lunge to Balance

Hold dumbbells at your sides. Step forward into a lunge (sagittal plane), dropping your hips until both knees are at 90 degrees. Push off the front foot to return to the start, but instead of putting the foot down, drive the knee up and balance on one leg for 2 seconds. Draw your belly button in and brace your core to maintain perfect alignment during the balance phase. (Tempo: 4/2/1/1)
