How to do The Overhead Lunge: - Hold a weight plate, weighted bar, or dumbbells overhead, with your feet shoulder width apart and knees slightly bent. - Keep the weight directly overhead (in line with the shoulder joint), and take a comfortable step forward in to a deep lunge position. - Make sure your forward knee remains over your forward foot (not in front of it). - Forcefully drive your forward heel in to the ground and return to the starting position. - Perform up to 10 repetitions on each side and then switch sides. - Maintain perfect posture throughout the movement—your head is level, your eyes are looking forward, your chest is held high and your back is flat. - Don't bend your elbows or let the weight sink during the movement. - Don't let your front heel lift off of the ground. - It's helpful to practice this exercise with no weight in the beginning. - Hold a broomstick or other light bar overhead as you squat. Increase the weight only when you master the movement. - If you cannot complete 10 repetitions with perfect form and control, reduce the weight and focus on your form.
