"The next exercise I am going to do is demonstrate a rear lunge or walking lunge going backwards. Again, if your space is too small you can just step back instead of forward. Tapping that toe on the floor, bending your knee, exhale as you come up, bring that foot forward. Switch to the other side, take a step back, abs are tight, knees over ankle, inhale down, exhale come forward. If your space is large enough, we are going to travel backwards. Make sure you look behind you to make sure there is nothing back there. Good. Hands on your hips, abs are tight, take a step back, lunge straight down, push down through your front heel, bring your feet together. Gain your balance and step back. Exhale, press up, come together. Step back and press together very good. Inhale as you go down, knee over ankle, push through your heel and come back up. Very good. "
