5. Jump Lunges
Lunges are elemental leg exercises that your glutes and hamstrings love to hate. They also build knee and ankle stability, especially in this variation where a plyo element adds in extra cardio and intensity.
Start in a lunge with your right foot forward, knee over ankle, and your left leg bent behind you, propped up on the ball of your left foot. Make sure your feet stay hip-width apart, like they are on railroad tracks. Jump up, bringing your feet together underneath your hips, standing straight up. Jump your feet into another lunge; this time your left foot will be forward. This completes one repetition. Repeat the process, switching the lead leg for three sets of 10 reps.Image Source: POPSUGAR Photography
