Jumping Lunges: For Cardio and Leg Strength

Jumping lunges is a quick, intense lunge variant that puts your cardio, balance, and coordination to the test. Add this exercise to a cardio workout to strengthen the legs, hip flexors, claves and glutes and get the blood pumping.

How to do jumping lunges

  1. Stand in an area with enough legroom and a non-slippery surface. 
  2. Place your right foot forward and left foot back and lower yourself into a lunge. Place your hands on your hips and ensure your core is activated and your spine remains in a nice and neutral position. This is your starting position.
  3. Jump up using both legs. 
  4. While in the air, switch your legs so the left one is in front and land back down in a lunge.
  5. Repeat 5-10 times in 2-3 sets - as your ability allows.

 

Support your jumping lunges 

When doing an intense exercise your joints aren’t quite used to, or when exercising after injury recovery, it’s a good idea to give your joints extra protection. The GenuTrain P3 Knee brace incorporates compression and padding, which:

  • Maximise muscle output 
  • Reduce fatigue 
  • Stabilise the patella 
  • Relieve pain
