The Side Lunge Workout on a Fitness Disc

Our next exercise is the side lunge. The side lunge position I am going to actually stand on one glider for safety for right now. As you learn the exercise you will be able to go to two gliders. The side lunge, I'm going to push my foot out to the side in a little bit of an angle behind me, not directly behind me, but a little bit to the side, okay? From a side view, instead of going directly to the side I'm going back just a little bit on an angle. To start the exercise I'm going to place my hands on my thigh so I feel very supported. I'm going to start with a small range of motion and pull the glide back in. Keep in mind that I am pushing through the ball of the foot the entire exercise, so pushing out and pulling in and pushing out and pulling in. I can slow that movement way down and take it into a larger range of motion and pull in, or I can speed it up. I'm feeling more comfortable with the exercise so I can reach out and pull in, again, increasing the range of motion as you become comfortable with the exercise. Moving to the other side, starting with a small range of motion, and increasing that range of motion and/or the speed of the exercise as I become more comfortable with the side lunge.
