How to Do
How to Do Lunges with a Barbell
The lunges with a barbell should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the lunges with a barbell.
Beginning
Beginning Lunges with a Barbell
1. With the right foot front and the left leg back, take a split stance. Depending on your leg length, your feet should be roughly 2 to 3 feet apart.
2. If you feel shaky in the split stance, grab a wall or a chair for support. Make sure your torso is straight and you're standing on your rear toes before lunging.
