@sydprogress: in my opinion, reverse lunges don’t nearly get enough love, but here’s why I loveeee them and will always choose them as a lower body staple: 💛they can become glute and hamstring focused, shifting the load back, allowing you to hinge and sit back into those juicy glutes. Your quads and calves are still engaged, but I love the emphasis on the glutes/hamstrings when I hinge back!! 💛they’re joint friendly!!! shifting the load back allows for reduced pressure on your knees, compared to a forward lunge. 💛the core control is immaculate, especially with a barbell reverse lunge! if you’re trying to work your core in functional ways, this is it!! 💛improves balances/helps reduce muscle imbalances! we loooove a single leg exercise over here, 1 because I get to challenge my balance & coordination, 2 because I can isolate one leg at a time & really feeeel each glute/leg. your sign to start including them… or letting me program them for you hehehe my coaching and programming is open and I’d love to help you xoxo 🔗 in my bio! also new @Alphalete launching Saturday may 17 and she’s sooo cutie.
