How To Do Standing Lunges Correctly

How To Do Standing Lunges With Proper Form


Hey FlyFamily, it’s Drei and today I’m going to teach you how to do standing lunges correctly so you gain maximum benefit and prevent potential injuries.

You’re going to want to do a good warm up and stretch your hamstrings and quads out so you’re nice and limber. We will be working the quads, hamstrings and hip flexors in this exercise.

You want to start with your feet hip width apart and drive your left leg forward so it’s out in front of you. Please make sure that your left knee does not extend past your toes so you prevent potential knee injuries. Then drive that back knee down a little bit and get that stretch through your right leg.

Bring it back up so both feet are should width apart and lead with your right leg this time same as the left prior. Again, make sure to not extend your right knee past your toes. Go deep into your stretch and feel the burn in your hamstrings.

Repeat this process for 3-5 sets holding that deep stretch with proper posture, knees not over toes, back straight and head up.

And remember, self-work increases self-worth, stay hydrated, stay present and always StayFly!
