Lunge Walk Across Court

Instructions

1. 1Players begin with a brief stretch at the baseline
2. 2Walk forward in continuous lunges across half the court
3. 3Pause at the midpoint for a brief stretch reset
4. 4Continue lunging through the second half to the far end
5. 5Keep torso upright and hold each lunge briefly at the bottom

Coaching Points

• Do not let the front knee cave inward
• Keep the back knee just off the floor
• Engage the core throughout

Common Mistakes

• Front knee pushes past the toes, stressing the joint
• Torso leans forward instead of staying upright
• Back knee crashes into the floor instead of hovering just above
• Taking steps that are too short, reducing the stretch on hip flexors
• Rushing through the lunges instead of holding briefly at the bottom
