Walking Lunge This deceivingly difficult exercise both stretches and strengthens your quads, hamstrings, and glutes.
Description
  1. Stand in place. Reach your right forward and your left leg back as you lower your body into the lunge position.
  2. Keep your back straight and your eyes looking ahead as you lower until your right leg is at a 45 degree angle, and your left leg is stretched and slightly bent.
  3. Explode upward as you reach your left leg in front of your right and complete the exercise once again but reversed in terms of your legs.

Alternate Weighted Version:

  1. Perform the exercise in the exact same manner while holding appropriate weighted dumbbells at your sides.
    Things to Keep in Mind
    • Form is essential to successfully completing a lunge. Make sure to lower far enough and always keep your back straight.
    • If done correctly you should feel a good stretch in your quads.
