How to perform Dumbbell Reverse Lunge with proper form
Starting Position
- Stand upright, feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand at your sides.
Execution Steps
- Step Back: Shift your weight onto one leg and step back with the opposite leg, lowering your body until both knees are bent at a 90-degree angle.
- Lowering Phase: Ensure your front knee stays over your ankle and does not extend beyond your toes.
- Front Leg Focus: Keep your torso upright and engage your core throughout the movement.
- Return: Push through the heel of your front foot to return to the starting position, bringing the back leg forward.
Key Points
- Maintain a neutral spine throughout.
- Don't let your back knee touch the ground; just hover above it.
- Keep your head up and look forward.
- Alternate legs with each repetition.
Tips
- Choose an appropriate weight to maintain control and form.
- Ensure your movements are smooth and deliberate.
