Travel Fit Exercise of the Week: Lunges with Arms

Combine any type of lunge--standing, walking, backwards--with an overhead press to simultaneously target quads, glutes, hamstrings, deltoids and triceps. These work equally well with an arm curl.

At right, John demonstrates a standing lunge with overhead press using a resistance band. This exercise works equally well with free weights, if your Fit Hotel has any available.

Start in a lunge position, resistance band under your back foot and hands down. Drop your back knee down to the floor and then push up with your legs while simultaneously pushing up with your arms.

Tips: Keep your front knee over your ankle to avoid stressing your knee. Drop your back knee as far down as you can, to maximize your range of motion.
