do any of you beasts do lunges?

[tom joad]

I love leg day.  So i'm thinking about adding an exercise.  (I already do the basics.)  I've never done lunges before. Are they a worthwhile movement or are they a little too gay?  What's better, with a barbell or with dumbbells?

[LatsMcGee]

I like Barbell Lunges. 

[Mr. Magoo]

I like dumbbells

[Coach is Back!]

They are pretty much a fixture in our lower body programs, replaces leg extensions. Walking lunge, front lunge, reverse lunge, zercher lunge, DB lunge, over head lunge, lateral lunge, etc, etc, etc, etc......anything to stay away from a machine.

***Disclaimer - I'm not a beast***

but

imo, a leg program isn't complete w/out lunges.  i like to superset w/ leg press or hack squats

[JimmyJam1974]

Love walking barbell lunges. Try to find an area that allows you enough distance to get good reps in without changing direction. If I have to change direction, always fucks my breathing up

Kettlebells dont work stay with flipping tires.

Kettlebells are an excellent form of cardio incorporating weight.

And I could have made $300 flipping the tire Fri, but I didn't take his money.

[JasonH]

Lunges are shit - I never do them.

[timfogarty]

squats, straight leg dead lifts, and leg curls

You are a good man no matter what these homos say. Tell me about the kettlebells how are you incoporating them with cardio?

Kettlebells are cardio, if you've never used them try it, you'll see.

I have a bit of a sore vagina (arthritis) in my right big toe which lunges tend to aggravate, but when I can tolerate them they are one of my favorite leg exercises.
