Barbell Lateral Lunge Overhead

Video coming soon...

The barbell lateral lunge overhead workout is designed to primarily target the quads and glutes.

By holding the barbell overhead, it adds resistance to the lateral lunge movement, increasing the challenge for the targeted muscles.

While other muscles such as the hamstrings and core are also engaged, the focus remains on the quads and glutes.

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a barbell with both hands in front of your chest.
Take a step to the side with your right foot, keeping your left foot stationary.
Bend your right knee, lowering your body into a lunge position while keeping your back straight.
As you lunge, simultaneously raise the barbell overhead, fully extending your arms.
Push off with your right foot and return to the starting position, lowering the barbell back to your chest.
Repeat the lunge on the opposite side, stepping to the left with your left foot and lowering into a lunge while raising the barbell overhead.
