Overview

The squat lunge is a compound exercise that targets the quads, hamstrings, and glutes. It is performed by starting in a standing position with your feet shoulder-width apart. Step forward with one leg and lower your body until your front knee is bent 90 degrees and your back knee is nearly touching the ground. Push off of your front foot to return to the starting position and repeat on the opposite leg. The squat lunge can be performed with or without weights. It is a versatile exercise that can be used for both strength training and muscle building.
