Dumbbell Rear Lunge

Expert Advice

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

Stand upright with a dumbbell in each hand at your sides.
Step backward with one leg, lowering your hips until both knees are bent at about a 90-degree angle.
The back knee should hover just above the ground.
Push through the heel of your front foot to return to the starting position.
Repeat on the opposite leg and continue alternating for the desired number of repetitions.
