SETUP
Strengthens hip abductors and adductors on lunging leg; works these same muscles as stabilizers on nonlunging leg as well as hamstrings, quadriceps and buttocks on both legs
- Stand with dumbbells on shoulders, elbows close to sides, heels together, toes slightly turned out and legs straight, not locked.
ACTION
- Contract abs and take a big step to the right, bending right knee into a side lunge, sinking hips behind right heel with left leg straight.
- Push down with right foot as you drag it back to return to starting position.
- Do 1 set back-to-back with 1 set of cable abductions on right leg, then left leg; repeat for second superset.
TRAINER'S TIP Lean torso forward so shoulders are above your thighs; this will help you sit farther back into your hips.
