Dumbbell Rear Lunge

Legs · Dumbbell · one side at a time

How to do it

From standing, take a long step **backwards** and lower until the knee nearly touches the floor; return by driving through the front leg, which never moved. It is friendlier to the knee than a forward lunge because the front foot stays planted. You feel glute and quad of the supporting leg.

Variants

The drawing shows one way of doing it, and the technique above describes that one. Almost every exercise has variants — standing or seated, the grip, the bench angle — and is still the same exercise: if you do it another way, write it in the exercise note and you will have it every time you train it.
