BLR Movement of the Month: LUNGES
Lunges can be done anytime, anywhere and require NO EQUIPMENT or GYM! Here we review the proper way to perform a lunge.
by Amanda Fitz
What is a lunge? Lunges are a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles (ie: quadriceps, hamstrings and gluteal muscles) and helps you achieve shapely, toned legs and backside. A long lunge will emphasize the gluteal muscle engagement, whereas short lunges will emphasis engaging the quadriceps. Lunges can be performed in a variety of ways to best accommodate your fitness level and can be done with body-weight or with dumbbells. Lunges are a great conditioning exercise to add to your fitness routine!
