There are always variations for every exercise!
Look at the three lunge variations that the group is doing based on each individuals fitness level.
Knee hovering just above the floor
High knee
Knee on mat
-A fourth variation would be to take the lunge out and just do the hammer curl to shoulder press .
*You can always find a way.
