Those of us who are addicted to exercise tend to focus on our favorite exercises. This can be a good thing if you want to get really good at something it tends to take a lot of practice. I have read that it can take 10,000 attempts to master a movement. (squats, lunges, etc.)

| Lateral Lunges aren't easy |
What type of movements do very few people work on? Lateral movements. Why? Because they aren't very easy to perform without a lot of practice.
 |
| Lateral movements on stairs are a great way to prepare for ski season. Just don't look down at your feet while doing them. |
Why should you consider adding lateral movements to your routine?
1. They will add stability and balance to your movements through your hips.
2. They will help your knees track properly over your toes. This will help alleviate knee pain.
3. They will increase the range of motion of you hips and that can help alleviate back pain.
If you are looking for another way to challenge yourself, consider adding lateral movements to your exercise routine.
