Description

Stand with your feet together, holding a weight with your arms extended towards the ground. Take a big step to the side to perform a lateral lunge. Lower yourself slowly by bending the knee of the moved leg, while keeping the kneecap aligned with the second toe and the back slightly arched (glutes and hips back). Keep the weight towards the ground throughout the movement. Push on the heel of the bent leg to return to the standing position. Repeat the exercise with the other leg, alternating sides if necessary.
