How to Do

How to Do Dumbbell Side Lunge to Balance

The dumbbell side lunge to balance 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 dumbbell side lunge to balance.

Beginning

Beginning Dumbbell Side Lunges

1. Begin by standing tall with your feet hip-width apart.

2. Take a step to the left, widening your stance. As you push your hips back, bend your left knee.

3. Return to standing by pushing off with your left leg.

4. Before transferring to the right, do 10 to 12 lunges on the left side.

Benefits

Dumbbell Side Lunges Benefits

Balance, stability, and strength are all improved with lateral lunges. They work your inner and outer thighs. Side lunges teach your body to move from side to side, which is a great contrast from the forward or twisting motions it is used to.
