The curtsy lunge builds quad strength while hitting your glutes and inner thighs. It's a single-leg move that boosts balance and targets muscles regular lunges miss.
1. Stand with feet hip-width apart, hands on hips or at your sides. 2. Step your right foot back and across behind your left leg, like you're doing a curtsy. 3. Lower your body until both knees bend to about 90 degrees in the curtsy lunge position. 4. Push through your left heel to return to starting position for the curtsy lunge. 5. Complete all reps on one side before switching to work the other leg.
• Keep your front knee tracking over your toes during the curtsy lunge movement. • Don't let your torso lean forward - stay tall through your spine. • The curtsy lunge works best when you step back far enough to get a good stretch. • Control the movement down and up - no bouncing at the bottom.
• Stepping too shallow in the curtsy lunge, which limits the muscle activation. • Letting the front knee cave inward instead of staying aligned over the foot. • Rushing through the curtsy lunge instead of controlling each rep with good form.
