A lower-body movement using a split stance and bending the hips and knees to lower the body.
Why Lunge matters
Lunge variations train each leg with balance, hip control and a wide choice of movement directions.
A practical example
A reverse lunge may feel more controlled than stepping forwards for some beginners.
Common mistake
Using a stride that causes pain or losing foot and knee control to reach unnecessary depth.
Keep the context in mind.
Training and nutrition terms describe general principles. The right exercise, intensity or food target still depends on your experience, health, goals and schedule.
Personalised coaching
Apply the principle to your own training.
A definition is useful, but your programme still needs to match your experience, schedule, recovery and goals.
