01

Step-up with Knee Raise

Use a low, stable step (15-20 cm). Drive through the lead heel to stand, add a soft knee raise, lower under control. No push-off from the trailing foot. Skip the knee raise or hold a rail for balance.

02Who · when · how

When to reach for this template

Reconditioning effort cap is RPE 5-6 across working sets. Step-up: low step (15-20 cm), drive through the lead heel, no push-off from the trailing foot; raise the step only when reps feel like RPE 5. One-arm row: brace on a bench or thigh, pull the elbow to the hip, no torso twist; pick a weight you could do for 15. Press: ribs down, no lean-back; if the shoulder pinches, reduce range. Clamshell and side bridge prime the hips and lateral core - hold braced. Sub bodyweight squats for step-ups if balance is shaky.
