A Bunch of Lunges: A Lower Body Workout

Today we are focusing on bunches of lunges. Believe it or not lunges can work your abs, butt, hips, and thighs. It’s the ideal move to incorporate with a cardio routine to get a full out workout. The most thing to remember about lunges is to PROTECT YOUR KNEE. A good rule of thumb is to keep you knees at a 90 degree angle by making sure it doesn’t go over your shoe string or big toe. If it does you are putting too much stress on the very fragile knee joint.
