Wednesday workout - the reverse lunge
Today’s #WednesdayWorkout is with Bootcamp Pilates Instructor, Lucy Thirsk as she takes us through steps to perform a reverse lunge.
The reverse lunge exercise is fantastic for building strength and toning the legs and bottom. Performing the reverse lunge means you place less stress on the knees.
- Stand in the start position standing tall. Take a large, controlled step backward with your left foot.
- Lower your hips so that your right thigh becomes parallel to the floor with your right knee positioned directly over your ankle. Your left knee should be bent at a 90-degree angle.
- Return to standing position by pressing your right heel into the floor and bringing your left leg forward to complete one rep.
- Continue alternating legs for 20 reps in total.
