 Lombardies
on one leg (alternate) - (advanced) (Legs - Hip)
1- From a standing position on the right foot, go down
on your hands.(keep abs always tight)
2- From that crouched position, transfer your weight forward
on your hands to push your right leg back.
3- From that push-up position, on your right foot, bring
your leg back under you to push yourself up.
4- As you are pushing yourself up, bring your left knee
up dynamically in front of you, followed by your right
knee to get more height. Your arms should be pushed up
at the same time as your knees move up.
- This is a dynamic movement. Abdominals must stay
contracted during this exercise.
- Alternate leg after a complete set on the same leg
or after each jump (6 to 10 reps per leg).
- For lower intensity, the exercise could be done on
two legs with or without the dynamic jump.
