20-Minute Park Workout for Moms

Slide Lunges

By Cathy Moxley

5. Slide Lunges
Stand in a lunge position with your back foot up on the bottom of the slide. Lower down, bending your front knee to about 90 degrees, being careful not to let your front knee to jut out beyond your toes. Push back up to your starting position, focusing most of your weight through your front heel (rather than your back foot). Be sure to keep your body erect and to keep the movement going up and down rather than forward and back, which would place undue strain on the knee. After your first 30-60-second set, you'll need to switch legs and repeat on the other side.

(Good thing the next exercise involves sitting! Your legs will need a break!)
