Introduction

Comments:

This is a good exercise to work the lower body strength with beginners. The exercise is easy to perform as they just have to follow the reference marking lines in order. To adapt or create variations you can use the range of motion… start with a small ROM and as they feel comfortable and improve the strength at their legs you can go to a bigger ROM.

An optional variation is to use a light medicine ball and do a front raise as they lung, this might also help them to be more balanced as they perform the lunges in case they struggle with balance.
