Compliments of CrossFit Calgary


5 Rounds for load:

10 Barbell Alternating Forward Lunges/leg

Coach’s notes: Take note, this movement is not a walking lunge, it is a forward lunge. Take the barbell out of a rack on your back, step backwards and perform your 20 reps (10 per leg) in front of the rack, then return the barbell to the rack. The trail knee must touch the ground for all reps. Rest as needed between sets. Post the load for all 5 sets to comments.
