Side Lunge

How to do it

1. 1

   Side lunges help improve joint stability because they engage the smaller muscles around the hip joint that support a steady, stable joint.

2. 2

   Side lunges build balance, stability, and strength. They target the inner and outer thighs and may even help reduce the appearance of cellulite.

3. 3

   Side lunges are a versatile exercise. Use them slowly as a dynamic warm-up before your workout, or perform them quickly to turn them into cardio work.
