Instructions

This movement will require some practice before performing at full speed. Follow these steps slowly until you get a hang for the coordination involved:

1. Start in a beast position
2. Move your right foot up right next to your right hand
3. Lift your right hand up
4. Balancing on your right foot and left hand, bring your left foot forward between your hand and foot, shooting your left leg straight out in front of you
5. Bring your left foot back to the starting position
6. Place your right hand back on the ground
7. Bring your right foot back to the starting position
8. This is one repitition
9. Repeat on the opposite side, bringing your left foot next to your left hand
10. Alternate side until you reach your desired number of reps or time

Once you are comfortable with the movement, you can advance the movement by performing the kick through in a single fluid motion. When switching sides, also do this transition quickly.

• Focus on kicking your leg straight out in front of you, it is common to kick out sideways
• Keep your kicking leg elevated, but close to the ground. Try not to kick straight up into the air
