Side Lunge To Prevent Injury and Muscle Imbalances - Become a Stronger More Balanced Triathlete

The side (or lateral) lunge is one of the best exercises you can do to prevent injury and muscle imbalances. This is especially true if you are a runner, cyclist or triathlete as most of your movements are going forward in the saggital plane. The side lunge engage your supporting leg muscles around the hip joint, the adductors, abductors, and engages your quads, hamstrings and glutes in another way than from running or cycling. It will make you a faster, stronger triathlete!
