Hey everyone, this is Mimi and welcome to lower body. Today I'm going to show you how to do a front and back lunge with the bicep curl. You're going to need two dumbbells. All you need to do is position your body about hip width distance, and I want you to give me a front lunge, come all the way down, bend both knees at a forty-five degree angle. Stand up straight and curl. Now as you're bringing your arms down, you're going to come all the way to the back and give me a back lunge. Now we're going to do ten repetitions, a little faster. Deep breath in and let's go. One, and squeeze your biceps. And two, make sure you keep your chest out the whole time and you keep your abs super tight. Three. And four. And five. And inhale, exhale. Couple more. And that was your first set with the right side. We're going to do the same thing with the left leg. Deep breath in, chest out, and let's go. And back. And front. And back. You're going to feel it all throughout your legs, especially in your quads, in your gluteus. Keep going and don't lose your form. Squeeze those arms really hard. Let's do a couple more. And that's it. So I want you to do the same thing two more times, a couple of times a week, and you'll be good to go. My name is Mimi, thanks for joining me and I'll see you next time.
