Want to challenge yourself? Here are a few ways to up the intensity on these lunges:

1. Add weight – dumbbells and kettlebells work great!
2. Add a pulse – come up and down a few more times once you are in your lunge to really challenge your muscles.
3. Add a shoulder press – work your shoulders by adding bands or dumbbells while also increasing your core strength and balance. Be sure to do the “press up” as you bend down into your lunge.
