Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your arms by your sides.
Step your right foot forward about 3-4 feet, keeping your toes pointing forward.
Bend your right knee and lower your body, keeping your left leg straight and your left heel lifted off the ground.
Extend your arms overhead, keeping them parallel to each other.
Engage your core and lift your chest, keeping your shoulders relaxed.
Hold this position for a few breaths, focusing on your balance and stability.
To return to the starting position, press through your right heel and straighten your right leg, bringing your arms back down by your sides.

Focus on maintaining a strong and stable base by planting your front foot firmly on the ground, aligning it with your knee and hip. This will help engage your quads and ensure proper form throughout the exercise.
As you step back into the lunge position, keep your back leg straight and activated, with your heel lifted. This will activate your quads and help you build strength in this muscle group.
Engage your core by drawing your belly button towards your spine. This will not only help you maintain balance but also enhance the engagement of your quads, allowing you to get the most out of this exercise.
As you extend your arms overhead, focus on lengthening your spine and reaching towards the sky. This will create a beautiful stretch in your quads, while also improving your overall posture and body alignment.
Remember to breathe deeply and rhythmically throughout the exercise. Oxygenating your muscles will enhance their performance and prevent fatigue, allowing you to maintain proper form and engage your quads effectively.
