Traditional forward lunge. Excellent for developing lower limb strength. The deeper the lunge the more structures are stressed in the proximal leg.

Traditional Lunge, with the barbell loaded infront of the head. The deeper the lunge the more structures are stressed in the proximal leg.

Posterior lunge movement, stepping backwards into a deep split and returning to neutral standing position.

Barbell loaded infront of the head on the shoulders, and a step backwards into a deep split position. This lunge variation places less stress on the knees compared to its countermovement stepping forwards.

The gold star AM Health & Performance exercise. The Swing Bar Lunge challenges the body to generate force and maintain stability in an overhead split position. This 2 in 1 exercise requires the interaction of the upper and lower limb with trunk musculature to complete effectively. The Swing Bar Lunge can be used as a general strengthening exercise, developing strength at range for larger muscle groups, or sports specific strengthening, targeting sports actions and injury prevention from overhead sports.

A PJLawler and AM Health & Performance Favourite. 2 in 1 Exercise. The barbell is behind the head and pressed whilst stepping into a lunge position.

2 in 1 exercise. Barbell infront of the head and pressing it whilst stepping into a lunge.

By placing a small box under the front foot of a lunge changes the load on the gluteals and hamstrings dramatically. This exercise is brilliant for sprinters to develop strength and power from a sound anatomically correct technical position. This exercise is also a game changer for hamstring injury rehabilitation and injury prevention, as it challenges the proximal fibres and attachment points of the hamstring muscles. This High Box Lunge exercise can also be done with DB's or a Trap Bar.
