Overview
Jumping lunges with forward motion develop strong, powerful legs. The jumping lunge is a fun exercise that requires no equipment and can be performed at home or in the gym. This exercise has strength and conditioning benefits that will shape your legs and burn fat. Due the high demand this exercise places on the neuromuscular system, it is recommended that you rest 48 hours before the next lower body workout.
