In this article, I will give you one of the greatest thigh exercises ever devise, that is, the forward dumbbell lunges. Do this one regularly and you will see amazing results lightning fast.
The 7 Key Tips to Mastering Forward Dumbbell Lunges
Tip #1 – Stand Up and Hold One Dumbbell In Each Hand.
Tip #2 – Turn and Keep Your Palms Facing Inward.
Tip #3 – Raise and Keep Your Head Up.
Tip #4 – Keep Your Back Straight.
Tip #5 – Place and Keep Your Feet About a Foot Apart.
Tip #6 – Inhale and Step Forward With Your Right Foot in One Smooth Movement.
Tip#7 – Lower Your Right Thigh Until It Is Parallel to the Floor; Do Desired Number of Reps, Then Switch Legs.
Final Precaution:
Do Not Bend Your Left Knee Behind You (When Starting with the Right Foot) Until It Is A Few Inches from the Floor – Follow this same logic when you step forward with your left leg, that is, do not bend your right knee behind yo until it is a few inches from the floor. If done properly, you should feel the stretch in the buttocks and the hamstrings (the muscles behind the thighs).
How Many Sets and Reps To Do
In bodybuilding, “reps” is the abbreviation for repetitions of the movement of an exercise. A “set” is the complete group of reps. So, if you do, let’s say, 12 reps, you may rest a minute. If do another 12 reps, you have done 2 sets of 12 reps. The secret “set-rep” combination for maximum muscle growth is to do a total of 4 sets, that is, you do 12 reps for the 1st set, then you do 10 reps for the 2nd set. You do 8 reps for the 3rd set. And finally you do 6 reps for the 4th.
The Final Secret of Doing – The Forward Dumbbell Lunges
Always start out with a light weight for your first set, then increase the weight by just a little more for the next and the next set. You may increase it as little as 1/2 lbs. or as much as 2 lbs. for each succeeding set. Once you get to your heaviest set which should be the 4th set, you probably will barely be able to do 6 reps. If this happens, you have done it correctly. Work you thighs and legs in this manner, using this exercise regularly, and you will see amazing results almost overnight.
