Lunge into great summer legs

Looking for new ways to tone and shape your legs for summer. Try these 3 types of lunges at home. Great for men and women.

Beginners: start with 2 sets of 20 lunges per leg, per exercise, twice a week ( Start with two of the exercises and gradually increase to three after a couple weeks)

Intermediates: 3 sets of 20 lunges per leg, per exercise, twice a week ( Intermediates can do all three exercises)

Advanced: 3 sets of 20 lunges per leg, per exercise, three times a week ( You may add some small hand weights 5-10lbs, to make this more challenging)


Stationary Lunge

Reverse Lunge





Forward Lunge


*Remember it is always better to start slowly and gradually work your way up, decide which level you believe you are and start one level below it for those who think they are intermediate or advanced.

* After following the guidelines for your level for two weeks, if you feel you need to increase the challenge, move up to the next level.
This workout should take 6-9 weeks to progress from beginner to advanced.
