Suspension Trainer Side Lunge

Video coming soon...

The suspension trainer side lunge workout is a great way to target and engage the quads.

By using the suspension trainer, you can add resistance and stability to the side lunge movement.

This exercise primarily focuses on the quads, helping to strengthen and tone these muscles.

While the suspension trainer also engages other muscles, its main emphasis is on the quads.

Stand facing the suspension trainer with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Hold the handles of the suspension trainer with an overhand grip, palms facing down.
Engage your core and maintain a straight back as you step your right foot out to the side, keeping your left foot planted.
Bend your right knee and lower your body into a lunge position, ensuring your knee stays in line with your toes.
Push through your right foot to return to the starting position, keeping your core engaged throughout.
Repeat the movement on the opposite side, stepping your left foot out to the side and bending your left knee into a lunge position.
Continue alternating sides, performing the side lunge exercise for the desired number of repetitions.

Start by adjusting the suspension trainer to a suitable height, ensuring the handles are at waist level. This will allow for proper range of motion and engagement of the quads during the side lunge exercise.
Stand facing the anchor point, with your feet shoulder-width apart. Grab the handles firmly, keeping your arms extended and your core engaged. This will help you maintain stability throughout the exercise and target your quads effectively.
Take a big step to the side with your right foot, keeping your toes pointing forward and your knee tracking over your toes. As you lower your body into a lunge position, make sure your right knee is bent at a 90-degree angle, while your left leg remains straight. This will maximize the activation of your quads.
Push through your right heel to return to the starting position, engaging your quads and glutes to power the movement. Maintain control and stability throughout the exercise, avoiding any jerky or unbalanced movements that may compromise your form.
Repeat the side lunge exercise on the opposite side, alternating between right and left lunges. Focus on maintaining proper form and engaging your quads throughout each repetition. As you progress, you can increase the difficulty by adding resistance or performing the exercise at a slower tempo, challenging your quads even more.
