Weekend Challenge: Curtsy Lunge

Build a Better Lower Body! 

The curtsy lunge offers a twist on the standard lunge and will liven up any workout program.

Step 1

Stand in an upright position and then step slightly forward and to the side with one foot, turning out the toes so you open up your hips.

Step 2

Bend both knees as you lunge downward, performing a curtsy like motion. Pause at the bottom and then rise up again to complete the rep.  

Repeat for 8 reps and then switch sides.
