Brett Chepenik Benefits Of
Lunges

The Lunge is an exercise performed to work lower
body muscles including quadriceps, hamstrings and
glutes. The lunge exercise starts in a standing
position with a shoulder- width distance between
the feet. A step is taken forward so the heel
touches the surface first and the angle at the
knee should not extend beyond 90 degrees (this is
to prevent causing stress on the knee).

The body should remain upright throughout the
exercise and is completed after returning to the
start position. Lunges can be executed with or
without weights .One of the important benefits of
lunge exercise is strengthening and toning the
leg muscles. There are a variety of lunge
movements such as side and walking lunges.

Side Lunges are similar in movement to forward or
backward lunges, with the primary difference
being the placement of the foot. . Walking Lunges
require the individual to move forward, step- by-
step. Walking lunges apart from working out the
hamstrings, quads, buns and inner thighs, also
can provide good cardiovascular exercise to the
body if done without rest.
