lunges

Lunges are one of the most effective lower body exercises you can do.
They help tone, strengthen and shape your legs and glutes, and improve the flexibility of the hips.
The lunge works several muscle groups simultaneously, speeds up the metabolism, and helps with weight loss.

How To

    • Stand with your feet hip-width apart, keep your back straight, your shoulders back, and your abs tight.
    • Take a step forward and slowly bend both knees, until your back knee is just above the floor.
    • Stand back up and repeat the movement.
    • Alternate legs until the set is complete.

Proper Form

When doing lunges, keep your weight in the front heel and make sure that when you’re bending your front knee, your thigh and leg form a 90-degree angle.
Maintain your feet hip-width apart throughout the entire exercise, don’t put one foot in front of the other.
Breathe in as you lunge, and maintain a smooth and steady rhythm.

Benefits:

Develops keep knee bending capabilities.
Stretches hip flexor and Achilles tendon.
Develop ankle and knee mobility, enabling a deeper squat.
