Workout move of the week-Curtsy lunge and Side lunge
This weeks move are some of my favourite exercises I like to do for my legs as I find them fun different. Great to spice up your leg routine and a great way to work the legs and glutes.
To do a curtsy lunge:
- Stand with your feet hip-width apart
- Dumbbells either side of your legs
- Core tight
- Take a big step back with your leg, crossing it behind your other leg
- Bend your knees and lower your hips until your right thigh is nearly parallel to the floor
- Keep your back straight and your hips and shoulders as square as possible
- Repeat on the other side
To do a side lunge:
- Stand with your feet hip width apart
- Dumbbell cupped in between your hand
- Core tight
- Take a step to the side with one foot and bend at the knee try to get your leg at 90 degrees
- Keep your back straight and your hips and shoulders as square as possible
- Keeping your other leg straight with a soft bend in the knee if needed
- Push through the heel of your bent leg to return to standing
- Repeat on the other side
