Who Loves Lunges?

Because of my bad balance and terrible knees, I always detested lunges. However, I knew lunges are GREAT for your legs to shape up. Lunges work almost all of your leg muslces at same time. I did some research to see if I can find a type of lunges that I CAN do. Bingo. I found one! It is called Reverse Lunges. It is done on a step. I tried this about two weeks ago. My legs were SO sore after I did the lunges for the first time that I was literally limping the next day. I would wince every time I sat down. It really worked. As I did the lunges a few days later, my legs were'nt sore anymore! Amazing how muscles heal.

I do it on my stairs at home so I can hold on the rail. Perfect for my bad balance.

Here is a link if you are curious what it looks like. It is not captioned but it offers a transcript though.

I don't hate lunges so much anymore, but I still don't love them yet.
