When you combine a biceps curl with a lunge, you can target your upper body and lower body in one movement. A lunge is also a unilateral movement, which challenges your balance, so it requires core engagement.
Muscles worked: this move requires your biceps to move the dumbbells, core to balance the movement, and quads and glutes to support your body.
- Start with your feet hip-width apart, and a dumbbell in each hand.
- Step your right foot forward, bending your front and back knee at 90 degrees.
- At the bottom of the lunge, bend your elbows into a biceps curl, bringing the dumbbells up to your shoulders while keeping your elbows tucked in close to your sides.
- Straighten your arms, then step back to the starting position.
- Repeat for 10 reps on the right and then repeat on the left.
