Alternating Side Lunges

The resistance band alternating side lunge is an effective lower body exercise that strengthens your quads, glutes and hamstrings while also targeting both the inner and outer thighs. By moving in a side-to-side motion instead of a forward or backward motion, you recruit your thigh muscles and also work on your balance and stability. This is a great exercise to add to your workouts to tone your lower body and improve your balance. Learn more about properly executing this exercise with the video above.
