Reverse Lunge with Chair Assist

Reverse Lunge with Chair Assist - Reverse lunges are a great way to work on balance and glut strengthening, but many people struggle with controlling their alignment in order to maximize their lunge benefits. A great way to optimize form while working on glut strengthening is to use a chair for support. In this tutorial you will see how a chair can be used to assist in this way with an eventual progression without upper body support.

If the rear-placed foot suffers from intense toe pain from the angle of the bend placed on it in order to lower the knee close to the ground, what can be done to resolve that (both to enable the lunges and to build flexibility in the toes so they don't hurt so much from such demand)? In the video, that looks like a toe bend of around 90 degrees, whilst my toes cry at about 20-30 degree bend :/

While doing normal lunges also we should press on front heel n use gluteus of back leg right? Maybe I was only using back gluteus n knees to get up so having pain. I m new to lunges. So help a reply will be so much helpful. Thank u

When do you exhale? On lowering down or driving up?
