Lateral Shuffle Walk

How To Do A Lateral Shuffle Walk Correctly

The Lateral Shuffle Walk is a simple bodyweight exercise, that when done correctly, can really engage and activate the glutes.

To get started:

1. Stand with your feet in a just outside hip width stance with your toes slightly pointed out.
2. Push your hips back to get into a ¼ squat position ensuring your knees stay over your ankles and your chest remains upright.
3. You’ll be in this position throughout the exercise.
4. Next, step to one side while maintaining that ¼ squat position.
5. Continue moving laterally to one side, then switch directions and step laterally back to the starting position with the other leg.
6. Repeat.
