Walking Lunge

Trains quads first, with real work landing on glutes, core, hamstrings and more.

Muscle contribution per set

Quads1
Glutes.50
Core.25
Hamstrings.20
Calves.20

These are the weights Heatwayve's volume audit actually computes with — deliberately conservative, so compounds don't masquerade as full coverage. A 0.5 means a set counts as half a set for that muscle: meaningful help, not a replacement for direct work.

Alternating lunge pattern; controlled descent protects the knee and keeps tension on the working leg.

Long stride, torso tall; drive through the front heel.

Derived from tempo research on this movement class.

How Heatwayve progresses it

Progresses by load in +1kg steps. Accessories build the muscle that keeps the main lifts moving.

Train with intention. Open Heatwayve — it prescribes the weight, watches the reps, and does this arithmetic for every set you log.
