Curtsy Lunge
Target Area: Lower Body
Equipment: Not required
- Start with your feet hip width apart and hands on your hips for stability.
- Keeping your upper body straight, take a step backward crossing your leg behind your front leg as if about to do a curtsy. Lower your hips until the front knee is bent at about a 90 degree angle and the back knee reaches just above the ground or softly touches the ground.
- Keeping the weight in your heel, push back up to the starting position before alternating to the other leg. Perform for the number of prescribed repetitions.
INTENSITY
Increase
