1 - Stand upright holding a dumbbell in each hand at your sides with a neutral grip.
2 - Take a long step forward with one foot, placing it about 2-3 feet in front of your rear foot, which remains stationary with the heel raised.
3 - Brace your core, keep your chest tall, and maintain a slight forward lean at the torso.
4 - Lower your back knee straight down toward the floor in a controlled motion until it nearly touches the ground, ensuring your front knee tracks over your toes without caving inward.
5 - Push through the heel of your front foot to drive yourself back up to the starting split stance position.
6 - Complete all desired repetitions on one leg before switching to the other side.
7 - Keep your torso upright and avoid letting your front knee travel excessively past your toes throughout the movement.
