A two-plane lower body workout targeting quads, glutes, and inner thighs. Perfect for runners, desk workers, or anyone whose movement rarely goes sideways.

You'll start with alternating lunges moving forward and back, then shift to lateral lunges that challenge your inner thighs and hip mobility. The change in direction keeps your stabilizers engaged and makes one minute feel surprisingly thorough.

Moving through multiple planes – not just forward and back – helps maintain hip mobility and strengthens muscles we often neglect. Research links this kind of multi-directional training to better balance and reduced injury risk in daily activities.
