Dumbbell Lunge: how to do it
Lunges with a dumbbell in each hand at your sides: step back until the back knee lightly touches the floor, then stand all the way up, alternating legs.
DUMBBELLStep by step

01 Stand tall, dumbbells at the sides; push through the front foot to come up.
Avoid: the front knee caving in as you stand: it twists under the load.

02 Step back, chest tall, the back knee kisses the floor.
Avoid: the back knee slamming the floor when tired: the kneecap takes it.
In short
- Dumbbells at the sides, shoulders back, chest tall
- Step back, the safest way at home, back knee kisses the floor
- Drive through the front foot to stand tall, switch legs
