Front Lunge
The Quadricep muscle group helps develop strength and lower body power through out the swing. And assists in hip stability, and vertical force
Starting position:
Start in a traditional standing position, with no weights, or weights in hands resting as your sides
Movement:
Maintaining a neutral spine throughout the movement, step one foot forward as your body drops in to a lunge, or kneeing position. At the bottom of the lunge most of your weight should be on the front heel, front knee over heel, body upright or slightly leaned forward. Back knee should stay directly below the hip, not over extending the hip, until the knee taps the ground, or to comfort level. Drive through the front foot with minimal pressure from the back foot to return to the starting position.
Notes: Complete repetitions on each side, or alternate for a chosen amount of repetitions
