- Welcome to KEBKO Functional Fitness! In this video, we’re demonstrating DB Walking Lunges, a fantastic exercise for building lower body strength, enhancing stability, and improving overall functional fitness. Follow along to master the form and incorporate this effective move into your fitness routine.
Exercise Breakdown:
Starting Position:
Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Hold a dumbbell in each hand, arms fully extended at your sides with a neutral grip.
Movement:
Step Forward: Take a step forward with your right foot, lowering your body until both knees are bent at a 90-degree angle. Your front knee should be directly above your ankle, and your back knee should hover just above the ground.
Push Through: Push through your front heel to lift your body and bring your back foot forward to step into the next lunge with your left foot.
Repeat: Continue stepping forward with alternating legs, maintaining control and balance throughout the movement.
Return:
Perform the prescribed number of repetitions, then carefully lower the dumbbells and return to a standing position.
Tips for Proper Form:
Engagement: Keep your core tight and chest up to maintain good posture.
Alignment: Ensure your front knee stays aligned with your toes to avoid strain.
Control: Move smoothly and deliberately, focusing on form rather than speed.
Breathing: Inhale as you step forward, and exhale as you push back up to the starting position.
Benefits of DB Walking Lunges:
Lower Body Strength: Targets the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and calves.
Stability and Balance: Improves overall stability and balance through unilateral movement.
Functional Fitness: Enhances functional strength and coordination, mimicking real-life movement patterns.
Core Activation: Engages the core for added stability and strength.
Incorporating DB Walking Lunges into Your Routine:
Add DB walking lunges to your leg day workouts or full-body strength training sessions.
Perform 3-4 sets of 10-15 repetitions per leg, adjusting the weight and number of reps based on your fitness level and goals.
Cool Down:
Finish your workout with a cool-down session, including stretches for the muscles worked to promote recovery and flexibility.
