How to perform Dumbbell Reverse Lunge with proper form

Starting Position

  1. Stand upright, feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand at your sides.

Execution Steps

  1. Step Back: Shift your weight onto one leg and step back with the opposite leg, lowering your body until both knees are bent at a 90-degree angle.
  2. Lowering Phase: Ensure your front knee stays over your ankle and does not extend beyond your toes.
  3. Front Leg Focus: Keep your torso upright and engage your core throughout the movement.
  4. Return: Push through the heel of your front foot to return to the starting position, bringing the back leg forward.

Key Points

  • Maintain a neutral spine throughout.
  • Don't let your back knee touch the ground; just hover above it.
  • Keep your head up and look forward.
  • Alternate legs with each repetition.

Tips

  • Choose an appropriate weight to maintain control and form.
  • Ensure your movements are smooth and deliberate.
