Lunge Print E-mail

Stand with your feet side by side at approximately shoulder width apart, weight evenly distributed over both.
Draw up your pelvic floor muscles and gently draw your belly button towards your spinal column.
Place your hands on your hips. Step forward with your right leg landing on the right heel.
Bend your right leg to a 90 degree angle and lower your left knee towards the ground gently touching the ground with the left knee or stopping just short of contacting the ground.
Focus on keeping the pelvis "square" - not rotating forward as you lunge.
Push through the right heel and return to a standing, upright position.
Bring the right foot back to the starting position beside the left and recommence the movement.
Do 12-15 reps leading with the right leg, then swap to lead with the left leg.
When lunging be sure to keep your body upright from the waist, pelvis square and do not lunge forward so that your toes protrude over your toes with the leading leg.
