The reverse lunge targets your glutes and hamstrings, explained certified personal trainer Andrew Bustos, NASM.
- Stand with feet together. Take a controlled lunge (or large step) backward with your left foot.
- Lower your hips so that your right thigh (front leg) becomes parallel to the floor and your right knee is positioned directly over your ankle. Keep your left knee bent at a 90-degree angle and pointing toward the floor. Your left heel should be lifted.
- Step the left foot in.
- Repeat with the right foot.
- This counts as one rep.
