ADDUCTORS

Walking Side Kicks Half Turn

BeginnerBodyweight

A dynamic warm-up that combines a pivot with a high side kick. Turning and kicking works the glutes and hip flexors while demanding balance and coordination, so your core stays engaged the whole time. It's a good agility and mobility primer.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Stand with feet about hip width, knees slightly bent, and raise both arms out to the sides.

  2. 2

    Keep your core tight, back straight, and gaze up.

  3. 3

    Step forward and pivot 180 degrees on the ball of that foot.

  4. 4

    As you pivot, kick your other leg up toward the fingertips of your outstretched arm.

  5. 5

    Step forward again, bringing the kicking leg down, then pivot 180 degrees on the new lead foot.

  6. 6

    Kick the opposite leg up to the other hand and continue, feeling a light stretch in your groin.
