How to do it

  1. Face the anchor and hold a handle in each hand at chest height for support.
  2. Step one foot back into a lunge and lower until both knees reach about 90 degrees.
  3. Keep your torso upright and front shin vertical.
  4. Drive through your front heel back to standing, then switch legs.

The one cue that matters

Use the straps for light balance, not to haul yourself up. Let your legs do the work.
