How to do it
A side-to-side lunge that strengthens your thighs and glutes and works the inner thighs too. 10 reps is 5 to each side.
- Stand with your feet together.
- Take a wide step to one side and push your hips back, bending that knee while the other leg stays straight.
- Keep your chest up and both feet pointing forward.
- Push off the bent leg to return to standing, then switch sides.
Tips and safety
- Only go as low as is comfortable.
- Keep your heel down on the bent leg.
Move within a comfortable range and stop if you feel pain. If you have an injury or health condition, check with a qualified professional first.
