Exercise Description

The incline bench dumbbell lunge builds quad strength while adding instability to challenge your balance and core. It hits your legs harder than regular lunges.

How To

1. Set an incline bench to 30-45 degrees and hold dumbbells at your sides 2. Place your back foot on the incline bench behind you, keeping most weight on your front leg 3. Lower into the incline bench dumbbell lunge by dropping your back knee toward the ground 4. Keep your front knee tracking over your toes and your torso upright throughout the movement 5. Push through your front heel to return to starting position and repeat the incline bench dumbbell lunge

Form Tips

• Keep 70% of your weight on your front leg during the incline bench dumbbell lunge • Don't let your front knee cave inward - track it over your middle toe • Maintain an upright torso throughout the incline bench dumbbell lunge movement • Lower slowly and control the descent for maximum muscle activation

Common Mistakes

• Putting too much weight on the back foot instead of using it for balance only • Allowing the front knee to drift inward during the incline bench dumbbell lunge • Leaning forward too much during the incline bench dumbbell lunge instead of staying upright
