Aquabag Lunge Diagonal Press Instructions

  3. As you lower into the lunge, press the aquabag diagonally overhead to the left, fully extending your arm.
  4. Pause briefly at the bottom of the lunge, keeping your core engaged and your back straight.
  5. Push through your left foot to return to a standing position, simultaneously lowering the aquabag back to shoulder level.

  7. Continue alternating lunges and diagonal presses for the desired number of repetitions.

Aquabag Lunge Diagonal Press Tips

  1. Focus on maintaining a strong and stable core throughout the entire movement. Engage your abdominal muscles and keep your spine neutral to enhance your balance and overall form.
  2. As you descend into the lunge, make sure your front knee remains aligned with your ankle, avoiding any inward collapsing. This will help activate your quads and hamstrings effectively, maximizing the benefits of the exercise.
  3. Drive through your front heel as you push yourself back up to the starting position, emphasizing the engagement of your glutes. Squeeze your glute muscles at the top of the movement to enhance their activation and develop strength in this area.
  4. Keep your shoulders relaxed and away from your ears, maintaining a proud chest throughout the exercise. This will ensure proper engagement of your shoulder muscles and prevent unnecessary tension in your neck and upper back.
  5. Control the movement and avoid rushing through the exercise. Focus on the mind-muscle connection, feeling the targeted muscles working with each repetition. This deliberate approach will help you maintain proper form and optimize the effectiveness of the aquabag lunge diagonal press.
