Dumbbell step ups
Calves - Glutes - Hamstrings - Hip Flexors - Lumbar - Quadriceps - Tibialis
- Start by standing in front of a box or similar height with a dumbbell in each hand. Keep your back straight, chest out, and look forward. This is your starting position.
- Then, lift one foot and place it firmly on the box. Make sure your entire foot is in the box and not just your toes. Push through the heel of your foot to lift your entire body until you are standing on the box. Make sure to keep your torso upright and the movement controlled, avoiding the use of momentum.
- Finally, slowly lower yourself back to the starting position, first lowering the foot that did not come up on the box. That would be a repeat. Then, repeat the movement with the other foot. Remember, it is important to perform this exercise with a load that allows you to maintain correct technique and control the movement at all times.
