LUNGE TIPS A: DESCRIPTION OF LUNGE
1. The hip flexes in much the
same way as for the squat.
2. In rotation moves, the
adductors or abductors are
placed in greater stretch.
3. The spine remains neutral except
during rotation movements.
4.The knee remains aligned over
front foot, never passing over
toes.
5. This forces the hamstrings
and glutes to act in supportive
roles against the forces that
may contribute to patello-
femoral problems and/or
anterior cruciate ligament
injuries.
