Gymstick Reverse Lunge

Video coming soon...

The gymstick reverse lunge workout is a great exercise for targeting the quads and glutes.

By holding the gymstick across your shoulders, it adds resistance to the movement, intensifying the workout.

This exercise primarily engages the quads and glutes, helping to strengthen and tone these muscle groups.

While it also activates the core and hamstrings, the focus remains on the primary muscles.

Stand upright with your feet hip-width apart, holding the gymstick horizontally in front of your chest with both hands.
Take a step backward with your right foot, lowering your body into a lunge position.
Bend both knees to approximately 90 degrees, ensuring your front knee is directly above your ankle.
Keep your torso upright and engage your core muscles for stability.
Push through your left heel to return to the starting position, bringing your right foot back next to your left foot.
Repeat the movement by stepping backward with your left foot, lowering into a lunge position.
Continue alternating legs for the desired number of repetitions.

Start by standing tall with your feet hip-width apart and your gymstick held horizontally across your shoulders, gripping it with both hands. This exercise primarily targets your quads and glutes, so it’s important to engage these muscles right from the beginning.
Take a big step backward with your right foot, landing on the ball of your foot first and then lowering your heel to the ground. As you lower your body, focus on keeping your torso upright and your core tight. This will help you maintain balance and stability throughout the movement.
As you lower into the lunge, aim to create a 90-degree angle with both your front and back knees. Your front knee should be directly above your ankle, and your back knee should be hovering just above the ground. This deep range of motion will maximize the activation of your quads and glutes.
Push through your front heel to return to the starting position, bringing your right foot back to meet your left foot. Remember to keep your core engaged and your upper body stable throughout the movement. This will help you maintain control and prevent any unnecessary strain on your joints.
Repeat the reverse lunge on the other side by stepping back with your left foot. Aim for 10 to 12 reps on each leg, gradually increasing the weight or resistance of your gymstick as you become
