Exercise of the Week
|
Part of keeping your exercise plan fresh and effective is to constantly be “mixin’ it up” with new moves. Check here each week for a new exercise that you can plug into your routine.
|
Lunge to Bicep Curl/Knee Raise (works legs, core and biceps) 10-12 reps on each leg.
|
 |
Start in a standing position (not shown), hand weights to your sides. Step back with your left leg so that you are in the lunge position (A). Be sure that your right knee does not go past the toes of your right foot and that your shoulders remain pulled back and your back is straight (in other words don’t hunch over during this movement).
|
Inhale and as you exhale push your weight into your right leg while raising your left knee in front of you and curling your hand weights towards your chest (B). Exhale and lower directly back into the lunge position
|
 |
Repeat on each side for 10-12 reps.
If this is too hard for you try doing it without the weights and arm curl. Once you get the leg movement then go back and add in the arms. You can also try doing this with holding a chair with one hand for support. |
Challenge: When you bring your knee up and are in position B, hold and kick that leg in and out 5 times before lowering back into the lunge.
