Exercise Profile

Kettlebell Lunge Overview

The kettlebell lunge workout is a great way to target the quads and glutes using a kettlebell.

By holding the kettlebell in front of the chest, the lunge exercise engages the quads and glutes effectively.

While the kettlebell also engages secondary muscles, the focus remains on the quads and glutes for maximum impact.
