I have a problem with alternating lunges. After 5 sets of 8 reps I don't feel that my glutes or hams are even bit tired, but only my quads. Am I doing them wrong (the same way as on this movie /watch?v=dJ95qwNaD78 )?.

[paulkatami]

Lunges are primarily a quad exercise so it sounds like you are doing them right. If you want to activate more hams/glutes try staying in a front lunge position, transfer all the weight to the front leg (barely use the back leg) and try some lunges on that front leg only. You will still be working the quads but activating the glutes and hams more that way. Otherwise there are a bunch of quad and ham specific exercises.

does this help you get bigger/fatter thighs????

[paulkatami]

Nope! This is all about conditioning lean muscle in your legs.

my legs started clicking when i started these is that badd??

[paulkatami]

if you are doing them correctly you shouldn't get a "clicking"

if it's painful or not feeling right you should check your form and then check with you dr. to make sure that there is nothing keeping you from doing lunges or squats correctly. this video is just meant to help with some form

[borumte]

the videographer was focused on your upper body more than your lower so it was hard to see what you were actually doing:(

[boricubana]

its very difficult to see the positions when the video mostly zoomed on his face. Not very helpful.

Are these good for a smaller butt? i'm a guy and i have a big butt.I don't really find pants that look good on me...

[scousergaz84]

do you need to keep your back straight on the squats??or do lean forward to work specifcally the quads?

[Newbpwng]

ive been doing squats-lunges-leg extensions in one workout but its extremely tiering since i do 205-220-240x10 squats and then 120-130-140x10 for each leg lunges and then leg extensions, i feel like puking after every session like this.
