 Dumbbell lunges are the apex exercise.

 I think it’s barbell back squats. But happy someone else around here also does legs.

 I enjoy both of these things. Skipping leg day is a soy-boy move.

 I love dumbbell lunges because they’re a full body exercise. Grip strength, arms, shoulders, back, core, legs, glutes and they require a good amount of control and coordination if you’re going heavy proportion of body weight. If I could only do one exercise they would be it.

 Yeah, when I do full body circuits, dumbbells are typically the way to go. If I want to load up weight and isolate, I go with the barbell.

 Sumo squats are fun. 

Kettle bell lunges are effective.

Wall sits are voluntary self-torture.

 I have long ass arms so I bang the kettle bells on the floor when I try those. Plus at my peasant gym they don’t have any kettle bells over 30 lbs. I usually am going 50 or 55 when I’m hitting the dumbbell lunges.

Wall sits are torture and I’m sure that the universe slows time down when someone does them 😂
