Curtsy Lunge Overview

Curtsy lunges are a great lower body exercise which helps build glutes, hip abductors and inner thighs.

It's easy and it's quite fun. You do not even feel like you are making an effort, but they really tone your legs.

How to Do it

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart while your arms at your sides.
Shift your weight onto your right foot and step back with your left foot.
Bend the left leg at the knee and lower it close to the floor without touching it.
Ensure that your chest stays straight and proud as you lower your knee behind the front leg.
As you lunge, bring hands together in a curtsying fashion.
Start to straighten up with your right leg, returning your left foot to the starting position.
Repeat the desired number of reps.

Tips on Curtsy Lunges

Keeping your torso straight is the right tip here.
Foot placement will determine your stability.
Agility is not the goal: try to main a stable posture.
