Barbell Curtsy Lunge

IntermediateBarbell

A curtsy lunge loaded with a barbell across the upper back, crossing one leg diagonally behind the other. The angle targets the glutes and outer hips while the bar adds real resistance for lower-body strength and definition. A solid choice for building hip stability and single-leg power.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Stand tall with feet hip-width apart and a barbell resting across the base of your neck.

  2. 2

    Step one foot back and diagonally behind the other leg.

  3. 3

    Bend both knees to lower into the lunge until the rear knee nearly touches the floor.

  4. 4

    Push through the front foot to return to standing.

  5. 5

    Repeat on the other side, alternating or finishing one leg first.

  6. 6

    Keep your torso upright and core braced throughout.
