The KB Goblet Reverse Lunge (Front Foot Elevated) is an exercise that targets the lower body, including the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and calves. It also engages the core muscles for stability and balance. This exercise is performed with a kettlebell and involves stepping backward into a reverse lunge with the front foot elevated on a platform.

Here's how to perform the KB Goblet Reverse Lunge (Front Foot Elevated):

1. Start by holding a kettlebell with both hands, close to your chest. Stand in front of an elevated platform, such as a step or a sturdy bench.
2. Place the toes of your left foot on the elevated platform, ensuring that your heel is off the ground. Your right foot should be positioned in front of you, with your feet hip-width apart.
3. Engage your core muscles and maintain an upright posture throughout the movement.
4. Lower your body by bending both knees and simultaneously stepping back with your right foot, allowing your left knee to bend and your right knee to almost touch the ground.
5. As you lunge, focus on keeping your torso upright and your weight distributed evenly between both feet.
6. Pause for a moment in the bottom position, ensuring that your left knee is aligned with your left ankle and your upper body is stable.
7. Push through your front heel and engage your leg muscles to rise back up to the starting position, bringing your right foot back to the initial position.
8. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions on one leg before switching to the other leg.
