Lunge FAQs 

What do Lunges do for your body?

A lunge is a strength training exercise that strengthens the thighs and buttocks and stretches the legs, groin, and hip flexors.

What are some Lunge modifications?

A) Move between forward leg being bent and straight.

B) Raise or lower back knee to the mat.

C) Face a wall: Press the big toe of the front foot against a wall and bring fingertips to the wall.

D) Low lunge twist: Bend back knee and reach for foot or ankle with the opposite hand.

E) Side lunge: Begin in Wide-Legged Forward Bend. Bend left knee into a half-squat. Keep your right leg straight and flex your foot so that your toes leave the floor so you are rooting into the right heel. Press hips back while keeping the spine lifted. Root into your feet so that your body is lifted, instead of sinking. There are a lot of options for arm variations. Keep your hands on the floor if you need them for balance (on a block if that is helpful). Otherwise, try bending your elbows and bring your palms together with the left elbow inside the left knee. Drop your hands to the floor for support and shift to the other side.

Will Lunges make my flat butt perkier?

Yes. The reason they can make your butt perkier is that the isolation of using one leg puts more stress on the butt muscles.

Do lunges reduce thigh fat?

Yes. Lunges can be effective in reducing thigh fat because it’s one of the best exercises to strengthen your legs and butt (helps build muscles in your legs and butt).
