Lateral Lunges with Dumbbell Curls

Action INHALE: Take a big step to the left, bending left knee and shifting hips back while curling weights (palms facing each other) toward shoulders.



EXHALE: Press off left foot and lower weights back down to return to start position and complete one rep.



Complete all reps on one side and then switch.
