After coaching for 12 years, I am certain that at least 50% of people who do lunges default into “piecing together the lunge” one robotic action at a time! Step, dip, push back, feet back to start… that 4 part sequence broken up like that is holding you back!! You gotta use your noggin 🧠 and REALLY think about smoothing it out into 2 parts only: Part 1 - “step back and dip” Part 2 - “press and stand up” You’ll be SHOCKED at how much more effective your lunges feel when THIS is your focus!!
