Weekly Wednesday Workout: 3 Way Lunges
Let’s work on those sexy stems shall we?

Lunges are one of my favorite exercises! I do them all the times usually in combination with squats. This is a fun twist to the classic move. I like the fact that by doing all three lunge positions, you can hit multiple leg muscles all in one workout. This one is perfect for the gym and even more perfect for the living room (no equipment required!). The best part though? The heart rate gets GOING! So its a great cardio AND strength training exercise. Double duty. 🙂
Have you ever tried 3 way lunges?

Gotta love the lunge to shape and strengthen those gams!! I think you should add in a jumping lunge, ya know…just for fun. Happy Hump Day!
Girl you just love some jumping lunges!
Love, love, love that you can do this in your own living room. Thanks Nellie, seriously huge thanks for this exercise. Happy Wednesday 🙂
You are welcome Janine 🙂
I am a big fan of lunges! Front, back, side, pulses…I don’t discriminate. I love them all!
me too Britt!
Love 3-way lunges!!! Definitely can turn into a cardio move, too!!!
exactly Kim, thats why I love them!
Those look pretty intense! I do love doing lunges but I have never tried it 3-way.
Its an awesome way to do them, try it Kris!
I do love some lunges! Those things work.
They sure do! 🙂 Thank you for stopping by!
What’s funny is that we’re almost cross-commenting! You were up next in my Bloglovin feed anyway, and I just saw that you commented on my blog. Oh, happy day!
These look great! I have done 3-way lunges. Oh, the burn.
Yep, I love these!
I can do these yay doing them now while waiting for my baked fish to be done. See I am doing right by eating right yay
you go girl!! love it.
I’ve never tried this specific move, but the strength DVD I do on the weekends has a similar set with side lunges that go straight into a back or curtsy lunge. And let me tell you, at a fast pace, my heart is definitely pumping! Though I’ve started slowing things down a bit because I felt like my form was suffering from the speed.
Yes, that is a really great point! Your form can totally suffer with speed!
You have GOT to share with me how you love lunges. I can’t think of an exercise that I hate more. Did it just become habit?
I learned to like em. I think the exercise I hate the most is burpees, but maybe if I did them often enough I wouldn’t hate them so.
Lunges are killer when you do 100 reps no matter what position. Forgive me, my legs are sore from pump this a.m. !
100?! yes definitely! I know you play no games in your class!!
thank you for my THURSDAY WORKOUT!!!
xoxo
ha no problem Miz! 🙂
Hahaha I bet he gets excited!! You are so good for doing that 🙂 Get it in where you can!
[…] shot out to my blog friend Nellie! Â I saw an exercise at her place last week and I was able to incorporate it into my workout at […]
Well that 3 way lunge is a great idea. Going to try those alongside jump squats.
