Squat to Lunge

Legs, Quads, Glutes

- Start with your feet shoulder width apart. Have a straight spine and engaged core to avoid any hunching. Do not look down at the ground; keep your gaze forward.
- Squat downward putting the pressure in our heels and keeping our knees in line with our toes.
- Once we stand up from the squat, we then prepare for the lunge.
- As we lunge backward, we keep our front knee facing forward and in line with our toes. We do not want our knee to go past our toes.
- We step back onto the ball of our other foot with our knee facing straight downward. This should be parallel with our front leg.
- Our front knee should create a 90 degree angle during this lunge, and the back knee should be just above the floor.
- As we rise back up to stand, we push out of our front heel to engage our glute.
- We then repeat the entire exercise again, starting with the squat and then doing the lunge on the other side.
