Mass Lunge

Congrats to Rob W. for getting consecutive freestanding HSPU’s today after the WOD! Achievement unlocked.

The walking lunge targets the quadriceps, glutes and hip flexors and with enough of them can make a brutal workout (see “400 meters of walking lunges” for time). Using proper technique for the lunge is essential for protecting the muscles of the legs and the knees.

Coaching Tip (Walking Lunge):

  • Stand tall
  • Abs are “on” or engaged
  • Hands are at the sides, behind the head, or on the hips (NOT on the knees as you lunge)
  • Step forward in line with the hips with one foot
  • Plant the foot so that the knee is over the ankle and NOT forward of the toes
  • Bend the rear leg until the rear knee gently touches the ground
  • Step up and forward with the opposite leg
  • Stand up completely as you move from one lunge to the next
