Lunge-Stretch

Reps: 20, alternating legs

  • Stand with your hands at your waist, and step back with your right leg into a deep lunge. Increase the stretch by lifting your right arm overhead and reaching to the left.
  • Press through your left heel as you return to standing to fire up the glutes, and repeat this move on the other side.

This move stretches the front of the hips while testing your balance and working your glutes.[/su_box]

Challenge your plank by stepping your leg to the side. To modify this exercise, just hold the elbow plank for 30 seconds.[/su_box]
