A short YouTube instructional clip by Josh, a personal trainer at the Wave House Athletic Club, demonstrating how to perform a reverse lunge using a broomstick for balance. The clip opens with an intro and equipment note (broomstick), gives a safety disclaimer (avoid if you have pre-existing conditions or pain), describes setup cues (plant stick in front, straight back, tight core, chin up), instructs to step back and alternate legs while keeping the spine aligned with the stick, and closes by inviting viewers to consult a trainer for questions.

Hi. Thanks for clicking on the link. My name is Josh. I'm a personal trainer at the Wave House Athletic Club. We have in our hands a broomstick. Now, I know a lot of you guys have a broomstick at home. You probably use it to do a lot of this. But today I'm going to show you how to do an exercise with a broomstick. So the first thing you want to do is make sure you have no pre existing conditions on your body. You're going to plant the stick firmly in front of your feet with a straight back and a tight core. Keep your chin up as you step back, using the stick for balance. You're going to alternate legs as you do your reverse lunge. And just make sure that you don't have any knee pain or back pain as you lean backwards or forwards. Try to make your spinal palm as straight as the stick you're holding. Thanks for watching. If you have any questions, please talk to a trainer at the Wave House Athletic Club. Have a great workout and have a great month.
