Perfect Overhead Walking Lunge Technique
The overhead walking lunge is an advanced functional exercise that challenges your entire body. ChAIron's AI coaching ensures proper weight position, core engagement, and walking mechanics throughout the movement.
Step-by-Step Form Guide
- Starting Position: Stand tall with weight held overhead, arms fully extended
- Core Engagement: Brace core and maintain upright torso throughout
- Forward Step: Take large step forward, lowering into lunge position
- Lunge Depth: Lower until front thigh is parallel to ground, back knee near floor
- Stand and Step: Push through front heel to stand and step forward with back leg
- Continuous Motion: Repeat alternating steps while maintaining overhead position
Common Mistakes to Avoid
