Lunges are a fantastic exercise for developing leg strength and balance, but they’re also one of the movements people struggle with the most.
Sometimes it’s knee sensitivity.
Sometimes it’s balance.
Sometimes it just doesn’t feel right.
That’s completely normal.
One of the most important things we try to teach inside Rico Group Fitness is that there are always alternatives.
In this workout Cyn demonstrates four movements that work similar muscle groups while allowing you to build strength in a way that feels better for your body.
Over time, strengthening the surrounding muscles can even help improve joint stability and make other movements feel easier.
Remember, consistency always beats forcing exercises that don’t suit you.
If lunges aren’t your thing, that’s okay — there are plenty of ways to keep progressing.
