Here we go for leg day! And it-s lunges! Technically no exercise is the same however what we do on one side, we have to do on the other for this leg workout. You will need a mat, a pair of dumbbells (I am using 10kg each hand for your reference) and a block or book for foot elevated lunges! A wall is also useful for assistance during lunge to pistol squats if needed. Timer will be on for 45 seconds followed by complimentary exercise for another 45 seconds with 30 seconds rest! FOOT ELEVATED LUNGE LUNGE TO KNEE DRIVE FOOT ELEVATED LUNGE (switch) LUNGE TO KNEE DRIVE ELEVATED CURTSEY LUNGE CURTSEY TO FOOT TAP ELEVATED CURTSEY LUNGE (switch) CURTSEY TO FOOT TAP REAR LUNGE TO ROMANIAN LUNGE TO HAMSTRING CURL REAR LUNGE TO ROMANIAN (switch) LUNGE TO HAMSTRING CURL LUNGE TO CALF RAISE ON TOES LUNGE LUNGE TO CALF RAISE (switch) ON TOES LUNGE DB LUNGE PIVOT B/W LUNGE PIVOT LATERAL LUNGE COSSACK LUNGE DB LUNGE DB LUNGE (switch) UNEVEN HIGH LUNGE UNEVEN HIGH LUNGE (switch) REAR TO FWD STEP CURTSEY REAR TO FWD STEP CURTSEY (switch) LUNGE TO HEEL TOUCH LUNGE TO HEEL TOUCH (switch) LUNGE TO GLUTE SQUEEZE LUNGE TO GLUTE SQUEEZE (switch) REAR LUNGE 3 POINT TAP REAR LUNGE 3 POINT TAP (switch) LATERAL TO X2 LEG LIFT LATERAL TO X2 LEG LIFT (switch) REAR LUNGE TO PISTOL SQUAT REAR LUNGE TO PISTOL SQUAT (switch) DB 1/2 REP LUNGES B/W FULL RANGE LUNGES DB 1/2 REP LUNGES B/W FULL RANGE LUNGES Ensure extra attention to the alignment and position of knees and feet throughout. Only lower so far that is comfortable and begin gentle and ease into the depth as you warm up further. Some movements will require a slower pace due to balance and uneven surface whilst other movements can be performed at a slighter faster pace if comfortable! Your entire lower body and core will be working throughout! It is important to spend at least 5 minutes warming up prior to beginning this workout, and pay attention to those ankles with circles and pointing & flexing of foot. Day 17 lunges lets go!

I did this workout as a double right after the back and biceps workout because I had chosen to go off-roading instead of doing the back and biceps the other day.
Next time I'll just let my schedule be off by a day instead of trying to make it up. I got through it but it was extra extra tough.
I was able to use 10kg weights but I had to take longer than 30 seconds breaks for a lot of the weighted lunge segments because I thought my heart was going to jump out of my chest so many times.
I regretted it less than half way but now that it's the next day I'm glad I was able to get through it lol. But never again ha ha ha
I can barely go down in pistol squats. But if I cross my calf over the standing leg's shin I can then squat a lot lower than trying a pistol squat so I do that instead.

Hi Caroline. I am all ready for lunges! I expect this one will burn. 40 minutes of concentrated lunges will be tough. but lunges are such a brilliant exercise for lower body that I am sure it will fell great once I have finished! Looking forward to it. I see the pistol squats are in there towards the end! Once again you have thought out a fantastic range of exercises! Thank You! Matthew

I repeated this video for a second time, 1 year after completing it the first time, using 30lbx2 (previously 15lbx2) and I'm soooo happy to say I found it significantly easier this time around! Proof I'm getting stronger (with 3 Epic programs under my belt! Thank you so much Caroline: )

I had more trouble with the backward qnd forward curtsy the forward one was an awkward move lol I didn't feel I had my flexibility there and the pistol squats I could only do a little bend
I like to eventually have more practice on the pistol squats so I can bend deeper in the squat

Hi Caroline! I'm from Greece and I recently started Epic 1! Just 3 weeks have passed since I began working out with your program and I have seen some amazing results! I wanted to ask you, if you could upload a video working out with a weight plate! Thank you so much! You're the best!

Hi Caroline! I've done epic heat program and then jumped to this one. But now I'm experiencing problems with knees (pfss) and have to avoid lunges and squats for I don't know how long-. Any tips how to continue program cause I'm panicing over not being able to continue schedule.

I love these workouts. I feel like Im gaining way more than I did when I was lifting for myself. I love lunges, so this is gonna be fun. Im still recovering from a sinus infection I got last week but Im starting to feel like my stronger younger self.

Hi Caroline! thanks for these amazing workout that I can do it at home during pandemic (all gyms are closed already for 4 months! Yet I found that my right glute is some how weaker and not easy to activate during single leg workout, how can I improve it?
reply

Remembering the previous lunge workout, I looked at today's title with fear, but Day 17 turned out to be so much fun! All those balance combos and the overall diversity were so interesting that the workout flew really quick! Thank you, Caroline!

Thanks a lot, Caroline I completed day 17 as of today. I had shoulder pain and back pain before training. Despite forcing them, it gets better, and I am feeling good right now. I will share my comments again whenever I competed in the EPIC I.
