Reverse Lunge

How to

Dumbbell
  1. 1 Stand tall, dumbbells at the sides.
  2. 2 Step back and lower the back knee toward the floor.
  3. 3 Push through the front foot to return.

Tips

  • Stepping back is easier on the knees than a forward lunge.
  • Keep most of the weight on the front foot.
  • Alternate legs or do all reps on one side, and log it the same way each time.

Common mistakes

  • A step back so short that the front heel lifts.
  • Letting the front knee cave in.
  • Slamming the back knee into the floor.
