Elevate Your Training with Marlon’s Dynamic Lunges
Trainer Marlon is in the gym demonstrating dynamic lunges, a high-energy variation of the classic lunge that builds lower-body strength, improves balance, and enhances cardiovascular fitness. This exercise is perfect for adding variety to your leg-day routine or incorporating into high-intensity workouts.
How to Perform Dynamic Lunges: Start Standing: Stand tall with your feet hip-width apart and your hands at your sides or on your hips for balance. Step Forward: Take a large step forward with your right foot, lowering your body into a lunge position. Your front knee should be aligned with your ankle, and your back knee should hover just above the floor. Explode Upward: Push through your front heel and return to the starting position with a quick, explosive movement. Switch Sides: Repeat the movement with your left leg, alternating sides for the desired number of reps.
Why It’s Effective: Dynamic lunges target your glutes, quads, hamstrings, and calves while engaging your core for stability. The alternating motion and quicker pace elevate your heart rate, adding a cardio element to the workout.
Pro Tip from Marlon: Maintain proper alignment by keeping your torso upright and your core engaged. For an extra challenge, hold dumbbells or increase the pace slightly to intensify the workout.
