Success tips
Place feet in a position so that when
you lunge back, your front foot is
directly under your knee and your
back leg lines up under your hip.
Keep your head and chest lifted, with a
slight arch in the lower back during the
movement.
Do only one side to fatigue and then
switch to the other side.
