How to Do Balance Step Up
The balance step up should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the balance step up.
Beginning Balance Step Up
Step and rotate onto the box with one leg, toes pointed straight forward and knee directly over toes.
Balance Step Up Movement
1. Lift the floating leg into triple flexion by pushing the mid/rear foot into the box and standing upright on that leg (dorsiflexion, knee flexion, and hip flexion).
2. Slowly return to the starting position, decelerating the drop with the stance leg (no flopping!).
3. Ensure that the kinetic chain is aligned at all times.
