The Jug Lunge Lower Body Exercise

Video Transcript

"Hello, this is Steven Vargas with Expert Village. In this clip we'll be going over how to perform a walking lunge. Again form is important. As you lunge you want to make sure that the torso doesn't come forward, but that we go straight down. This forward motion is going to create tension in the knee area that we're not looking for. So again starting with the feet together, you'll step forward, go straight down, push up through the heel, feet together. Alternate legs, going straight down, up, feet together. A walking lunge but using the milk jugs for added resistance. All you're going to do here is hold these jugs to the side and perform the walking lunge just like we did before. Step forward, going straight down, push up through the heel, come together. Step forward, straight down, push through the heel. The muscles targeted in this exercise are all the major muscle groups in the lower body as well the core as the stabilizing muscle. Also getting some work in the upper body with the added resistance from the milk jug."
