www.synergy-athletics.com – Increased core tension can be achieved while performing the front lunge exercise. Holding the bar zercher style changes the load and pressure on the core muscles. Flexing the abdominals / low back is essential to adding the correct stress on the legs. Holding the barbell in the clean catch position will help learn proper form on the lunge exercise. If you tip foreward, the barbell will drop, therefore the core has to be engaged. – Joe Hashey, CSCS – Synergy Athletics Keywords: Muscle building, leg muscle, core muscle, core exercise, front lunge, lunge exercise, core workout, core, abdominal exercise, low back, low back exercise, barbell exercise

Taxing as hell. I think it has better carryover for explosiveness IMO.
Corey, not for walking lunges, just what is in the video – how is it?
Hey J… have you ever tried the clean-catch position w/ walking lunges?
Yes, that is the standard way with doing the lunges (or with dumbbells by the side). These are advanced variations that put the weight off the center of the body – which requires more core strength to perform. Thanks for the question!

i was wondering could you put the bar on your shoulders as an alternative, like the way you do squats
