Lateral shuffle

An athletic half squat, shuffling sideways: the lead foot steps out and the trail foot follows without the feet crossing or clicking together, hips level and low; shown as a shuffle right and a shuffle back left.

Load and joint demand

Bodyweight exercise: the load slider has no effect here; body mass comes from your limits.

No gravity-based joint demand to show for this exercise.

Faults

Faults grow with knee bend and apply to lifts standing on the floor. The fault check flags a knee caving more than 10° inside the line of the toes and a load split beyond 60/40. Knee cave shows best in the front camera.

Body

Femur changes keep standing height fixed by shortening or lengthening the torso. Longer femurs force more forward lean in any squat.

Effort and your quota

7.5/10 effort7.5fatigue per set

Your quota per set: 30 s hard, stopping 2 reps short of failure.

One hard set earns 278 legs points.

Prime movers

Gluteus medius and maximus, quadriceps, adductors, calves.

What to look for

  • Stay low, chest up, weight on the balls of the feet.
  • Push off the trail foot; don't let the feet cross.
  • Keep the hips level; don't bob up and down.
How the model works, and its limits

One 3D skeleton drives both views. Segment lengths and widths are Winter's anthropometric ratios of height; segment masses and centre-of-mass positions follow Dempster's data. For free-standing lifts the whole-body angle is found numerically so the combined centre of mass of lifter and load sits over the middle of the foot. Arms and legs use two-link inverse kinematics with a pole direction. Rep timing follows a minimum-jerk profile.

Balance is quasi-static, so ballistic lifts are shown slowed down. Cable pull and pad support forces are not modelled. The spine is one rigid segment and joints have no range-of-motion limits or muscle forces.
