Dumbbell Lunge

Expert Advice

Maintain a tall posture throughout the movement and ensure your front knee does not extend past your toes to prevent joint strain.

Stand upright holding a dumbbell in each hand by your sides.
Step forward with one leg, lowering your hips until both knees are bent at about a 90-degree angle.
Make sure your front knee is directly above your ankle, not pushed out too far.
Keep the weight on your heels as you push back up to the starting position.
Repeat on the other side.
Continue alternating legs for the desired number of repetitions.
