Walking Lunges

Lunge Variation Workout

3 / 7

by POPSUGAR Fitness 2

Walking Lunges

Stand with your feet together.
Take a controlled step forward with your left leg.
Lower hips toward the floor and bend both knees (almost at 90-degree angles). The back knee is pointing down toward the floor with your heel lifted; your knee should never touch the ground. Your front knee should be directly over the ankle and never beyond this point.
Push off with your right foot and bring it forward to starting position. This completes one rep.
Step forward and repeat with the right leg.
Do two sets of 10 reps.
