Reverse lunges! These are fun and so so effective!
Your exercise of the day is the reverse lunge. These are hard work but really pay you back.
- Start by standing with your feet under your hips, like you are on a railroad track, not a tightrope.
- Hold on to something for balance. This is not cheating.
- Step your right leg behind you.
- Stand on your whole left foot, and your right toes.
- Bend both knees to descend into the lunge, aiming for an approximately 90 degree angle in both knees.
- Aim to stop just before your right knee touches the ground.
- Your focus here is on the left leg, which is in front of you.
- Do 10 reps.
Switch. Repeat 10 reps on the other leg. You might feel like these are way harder. That’s ok – you can do it!
If these truly feel impossible, aim for a smaller range of motion. Do your best, and experiment with what works for you.
As I said these are tough, so please let m know if you need help with them!
