- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- In this video, Physique Development Coach Alex takes you through the technique for the Backfoot elevated modified curtsy lunge. This exercise challenges the muscles of the lower body, more specifically the glutes.
If you're currently performing a curtsy lunge variation, we would encourage you to try this one out! We often get asked how you train your "outer or upper glutes". This exercise does a great job at training the glutes in those specific areas.

isn't this just a modified forward lunge, not a curtsey lunge at all
The connection to the curtsey is the positioning of the front leg, you call it whatcha want!
I can feel this so much! Thank you!
This explains well why I've been feeling the curtsy lunge almost entirely in my quads and nothing in the glutes. Thanks!
Recently discovered your channel. I really appreciate that you have the decency to wear a shirt! Some of these other workout instructors on UA-cam . . . I dunno . . .
I like your teaching approach and refreshing lack of condescension, as well. Thank you!
We are so glad that you were able to find us! And thank you so much for the kind words. We are aiming to create an environment focused purely on the content, while also creating an approachable atmosphere to learn and ask questions.
I teach the Curtly Lunge a lot differently. The hips and chest are square to the front. I cue to take a long enough stride back and across the midline to ensure the back ball of foot is right outside the front ankle. It gets a great stretch in the glutes eccentrically at the bottom of the movement. I have yet to have a client complain about knee pain. I never had knee pain either. I think there's something to be said about how coaches cue this movement up.
Love this video! I haven't seen this set-up before but looking forward to trying it out!
Thanks so much for watching! Let us know how you enjoy it.
My heart rate skyrocketed from doing this. After only 10 on each side! Woah it works
This channel is so udnerrated and good I had to purchase the program! Ill start it one day😂
We are so glad that we can help! Let us know what you think of the program when you get the chance to start it.
@@PhysiqueDevelopment I will! I do have some substitution questions!
@@friedchicken892 please email admin@physiquedevelopment.com.
I really like the explanation and the demonstration of the exercise that you've given. It is very well informed. I do wonder if the platform that the elevated foot is on an 8 inch tall one? I couldn't quite tell so I thought it couldn't hurt to ask.
Hey Emoretta, the back foot is elevated by 4 inches!
@@AlexBush_Shorts thank you for letting me know.
I like the idea behind this variation and will try it out later today. Wish the camera angles were better though. It’s hard to see where the back foot is relative to the hip and I think this is where some of the negative comments are coming from.
We appreciate your feedback & will implement in future videos. With this video specifically, we are working with a very small area in a garage so angles got challenging at times. Thank you again!
This is such a step backwards, It's just an easier variation of the Bulgarian split squat. The main reason to do the curtsy squat is for the lateral movement and hip abductor activation.
Of course, in making the video I would have to disagree. Now, with this specific movement my goal was try & best lengthen the upper glute max & doing so by adjusting the femur orientation. In fact, some research completed this year indicates that I may have been onto something... Check it out here, pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38416444/
