Part 5/9:
As the practice expands into lunges, Adriene focuses on the alignment and proper mechanics essential for developing lower body strength. By emphasizing hip creases and engaging the glutes, the variations offer challenging yet manageable options for participants, encouraging them to find their limits while maintaining safety and comfort.
Throughout the lunging sequences, the aim is to keep the movements slow and deliberate, thus creating an effective balance of strength and control. The session promotes understanding the body's mechanics – bending knees while dropping centers and ensuring that each transition is purposeful and thoughtful.
