Deficit Db Reverse Lunges

 

How to perform:

Setup

Stand with your feet comfortable width apart, dumbbells in each hand at your side, engage your core. Use a bumper plate/blocks/aerobic steps to elevate your feet.

 

Movement

Take a large step back, steady your balance, then drop your trunk down between both legs as you bend the front and back knee, keeping trunk upright. Make sure your back knees almost touch the floor for a deeper movement and larger range of motion. Step forward and return to start position.

 

Tip

Offset your feet, do not stand in a straight line

Do not let your knees fall inward as you bend and straighten them

Pretend as if your trunk is sinking down into quicksand between your legs as you descend with the weight.
