Great exercise and awesome for stability. Love doing walking lunges and feeling the pump in my legs.

Hmm, I hope I'll get a reply, cause I feel like I'm reviving a dead topic. :)
Anyway, what I'm thinking. Scooby says something about 3 sets of lunges, 6-12 reps per set. Alright, does that mean that I have to do the movement as in the video, for each leg, 6-12 reps, then pause or do I have to alternate the legs for 6-12 reps then pause? Or 1 leg at a time, 6-12 reps, then pause, then the other leg? :)
I hope I was pretty clear in what I'm trying to find out.
On scoobyworkshop the extension is /schedbeginning. htm
Cheers,
Chris.

Do 6-12 reps with one leg, then immediately 6-12 reps (preferably the same amount as for the first leg) with the other leg. This constitutes one set. Just remember to time your rest properly, as with any unilateral training.  (Here, we don't have dead threads, in fact, we encourage people to continue started discussions.) |

Alright, I understand what you mean. :) I'm going to start on that training tomorrow, as today I still have to study . . :( I'll try to time those rest periods and reps so that I can work both legs evenly.
Also, what do you recommend? Should I do the exercises as Scooby does them in the video, meaning some sort of stool and go lower or should I do it on a flat surface and keep the 90 degrees?
Cheers,
Chris.

as heavy as you can fully control. if you can't control it, it's too heavy, that simple. |

i hads a questions, i know this probably doesn't really change the exercise, but.. when i do lunges i just kind of go up and down so it's more of a split leg squat than a lunge. nothings wrong with that right? don't see why there would be..

I think it does alter the exercise some if you only go up and down without the step. imo
You are missing the push from the back leg (i think it works the calfs a bit) and possibly not hitting some stabilizers.
You also don't get the added weight of your bodies momentum when going forward/down.
