Langhans says this move targets the core, hamstring, and glute on the standing leg, but also focuses on the hip flexor and quad on the lifted leg when properly driven up.
- Step onto stepper with the right foot, and drive the left knee up to chest, straightening the stabilizing leg.
- Step off the stepper with the left foot, followed by the right foot, and repeat on other side.
- Maintain a tall chest and spine position. The foot of the driving leg should be flexed — keep the knee high without crunching your low back.
- Arms should move in opposition to your legs as if you are running.
- Perform this move for 45 seconds.
