Lunges, Forward |
Type: Legs |
|
|
|
Lunges are a great bodyweight exercise for working the legs and lower body. They can also be performed with weights to increase the challenge and build muscle and strength in those areas. They do require quite good balance and coordination and therefore a beginner would be advised to perform a static split leg squat before working up to lunges.

Lunges, Forward Steps:
Stand upright, hands by your side, feet slightly wider than shoulder width and toes pointing forwards.
|
Step forward and drop down so that the leading knee is roughly at right angles (bent at 90 deg).
|
The trailing knee should avoid contact with the floor.
|
At the bottom of the move push back up and step the leading leg back to the start position.
|
Keep the chest lifted, back straight and head looking forwards through the entire movement.
|
Repeat with the opposite leg.
