How to get better at dB box step overs?

[saachristian757]

I just did some the other day with 50# dB and it hurt. I injured my left knee twice in the past 10 years so my left side was much weaker doing this. I also feel after a while I start to hunch over. Any tips?

@saachristian757 You will do this movement so infrequently that it would be an exercise in futility with the end goal being to get better at DB big step overs. Squat, lunge, do step ups, etc and you will eventually be less bad at them.

@dawn16 True. How would you suggest I do the lunges? Just with dumbells by my side?
