Workout 2: Lower-Body Strength Circuit: Forward Lunge with Dumbbells

Targets legs, butt

Stand with feet hip-width apart, arms at sides holding dumbbells.
Lunge forward with right leg, bending both knees at 90 degrees; keep right knee aligned over ankle and keep torso tall.
Stand up, stepping right foot back to starting position.
Repeat, this time lunging forward with left leg. Do 8 to 10 reps per side.

Challenge yourself: As you step forward, rotate trunk to the same direction as front leg (so twist toward right as you step forward with right leg).
