1. Lateral lunge

This is your best friend as lateral lunge mimics basketball’s standard defensive shuffle while opening up the muscles of the groin and hips. Here, step to the right, from a standing position. Remember to keep toes pointed straight ahead and feet flat and then, proceed to squat onto your right leg. For this, you need to keep the left leg straight and the weight on the right leg’s midfoot to heel. Squat as low as possible, keeping the left leg straight. Hold the position for 2 seconds and return to the standing position. Repeat this for 10 reps and then, switch sides.
