Why it matters for golf
Skater lunges load the hips through lateral and cross body angles that ordinary lunges miss. That builds the frontal plane control behind a clean pressure shift and a lead leg that will not drift at impact.
Coaching cues
- Push off one leg and sit into the other hip.
- Chest tall, knee tracking over the foot.
- Push back through the whole foot.
- Stay balanced between sides.
Common faults
- Knee caving in on the working leg.
- Tipping the torso instead of sitting into the hip.
