Lunges

[superqt4u2nv]

does it target quads or glutes?

To change up my leg workout I added some yesterday and let me tell you my ass is killing me.

it does glutes hammies and quads. i felt it the first time in the glutes too. they are a crucial exercise to the lower body. your sqaut will go up to. think about it, how often do you actually lunge?

depends on your stance. a wider lunge works glutes, a narrow lunge more quads.

 

[bignate73]

depends on the form as msbev said. a longer stride or even a step up would be good for targetting glutes.

personally i dont like lunges, but if i had to do them, it would be walking lunges or reverse lunges only. the standard lunge in place, sucks.

The only lunge I ever did on a consistent basis were walking lunges. I always take a big stride and it really hits the glutes.

i currently do them basically every week after squats and leg presses. walking of course. i love them. i think they've helped in my hip flexibility, and like eat big said, your aquat will go up. oh yeah, ronnie does them too.

long time ago, i used to do lunges with a foot up on a bench with db's in my hands. those used to kick my ass
