Coach Zach Zenios, a Marine veteran and certified fitness coach, shares a dynamic leg workout designed to enhance lower body strength and flexibility. This routine, featured on Critical Bench, kicks off with jumping jacks to warm up, followed by a lunge complex consisting of four movements:

1. Forward Lunge: Targets quads and glutes.
2. Backward Lunge: Engages hamstrings and glutes.
3. Lateral Lunge: Strengthens inner and outer thighs.
4. Curtsy Lunge: Works glute medius with a graceful touch.

The workout progresses in three rounds, gradually increasing the number of jumping jacks to elevate heart rate and calorie burn. Modifications are offered for various fitness levels, allowing everyone to participate safely.
