Gotta Love Strong Legs



Alternating leg lunges are great for the quadriceps (legs) as well as the glutes (booty - yea I said it :) ).



Starting with feet side by side, abs tucked in, back straight, chest up and facing forward, step forward with the right leg. Bring it back to starting position and repeat with the left leg. Knee should NEVER reach past the toe.


Weights are optional.

If your a beginner (have been working out less than 30 days on a regular schedule) stick with weight free. Complete 3 sets of 10 (reps)

Intermediates should use weights ranging from 2 lbs to 5 lbs. Complete 3 sets of 15

The advanced group can begin with 8 lbs or more, work at a comfortable, yet challenging level - remember, you want to grow and progress. Complete 3 sets of 16
