REVERSE LUNGE WITH KNEE LIFT EXERCISE

REVERSE LUNGE WITH KNEE LIFT 

• Reverse Lunge exercise engages the muscles in your thighs, buttocks, and shoulders, and helps to increase your core stability. 

• Also helps to improve your flexibility and balance, as most of the steps in this exercise require you to center your body weight on one leg while moving your other leg through a full range of movement. 

• Reverse lunges help to activate your glutes and hamstring muscles. 

• They are not much stressful on your joints and offer you a little more stability in your front leg. 

• Reverse Lunge is good for people who have knee issues, difficulty in balancing, or reduced hip mobility

• In order to make the exercise harder, try starting the movement from the raised knee position (Step 6) without stopping in the middle.

HOW TO DO REVERSE LUNGE WITH KNEE LIFT?

1. Standing with your feet hip-width apart, keep your legs and back straight, and your hands on your hips.
2. Inhale and lunge backward with your left leg, trying to take your weight on your right leg as you do so, and bending your right knee slightly.
3. Raise yourself up by straightening your right leg and push down on your right foot. Also, bring your left leg in front at the same time 
4. Keep performing the movement until you achieve full lunge position with your left knee almost touching the floor, or as far as you can comfortably go.
