How to perform a lunge:




To do a stationary lunge, start by standing up comfortably. Step ahead with one foot and lean forward until your knee reaches a 90-degree angle and your rear knee is parallel to the ground. Then return to the starting position. You'll feel some tension in your legs. Remember to take it slow and not go too deep if you are new to lunges.

Count the lunges just like you count the squats. (If you do static lunges that you hold, count your breath (inhale, exhale) as one lunge.)
