Walking lunge with medicine ball twist

Walking lunge with an extended ball that adds trunk rotation control.

Form. Take a stable lunge, rotate the ball with your ribs and pelvis controlled and move on to the next step.

Common mistake. Turning only the arms, letting the knee collapse, or using a load that makes you lose balance.
