In this video, Trevor explains how to do the lunge exercise with a focus on the hip flexors and quads. He also shows you reverse nordic curls to strengthen the quads. If you do lunges as part of your bodyweight workout routine, you may be making some simple mistakes of habit.
By adjusting your lunges, you can train for even more functional strength that will keep your body balanced. By balancing out the muscles of your legs and hip muscles, you can avoid getting trapped in poor posture with stiff, inflexible hips.
