Dumbbell Rear Lunge Front Raise
A reverse lunge with a front raise at the bottom: step back, raise both bells, lower them as you stand.
How to do it
Setup
Stand tall, feet hip-width, bells hanging in front of the thighs.
Steps
- Step BACK into a lunge, back knee toward the floor.
- At the bottom, raise both bells to shoulder height.
- Lower the bells as you drive up through the front foot.
Common mistakes
Raising the bells before the knee settles: lunge first, then raise. Torso tipping forward under the raise: chest tall, lighter bells. Front knee caving in: track it over the toes.
Breathing
Inhale into the lunge, exhale on the raise.
