Split Sprinter High Lunge

The Split Sprinter High Lunge is a dynamic exercise that targets the legs and core while improving balance and coordination.

  1. Start in a standing position.
  2. Step forward with your right foot into a lunge, keeping your knee aligned over your ankle.
  3. Push off your right foot and quickly switch legs, bringing your left foot forward into the next lunge.
  4. Continue alternating legs in a controlled manner.

How to perform the Split Sprinter High Lunge

  1. Set up. Set up in a stable, balanced starting position appropriate for the Split Sprinter High Lunge using your body weight.
  2. Brace and execute. Brace your core, control the descent, and move through a full pain-free range of motion while emphasizing your hamstrings.
  3. Reset. Reverse the movement under control and reset between repetitions, keeping your form crisp on every rep.

Coaching cues

  • Move with intent — every rep should feel deliberate, not rushed.
  • Drive force through your hamstrings rather than momentum.
  • Keep your breathing steady: exhale on the hard part, inhale on the reset.

Common mistakes

  • Using too much weight and losing positional control.
  • Cutting the range of motion short and missing the target muscle.
  • Letting your spine round or hyperextend instead of staying neutral.
