Five reasons to reverse lunge
1. It's more knee friendly than the regular lunge since you don't have to stop and decelerate the forward movement of the body. You can focus on loading (taking a stride backwards), then on exploding forward.
2. Acceleration is the nature of this exercise, and it has great carryover to running, sprint acceleration, and athletics in general. Make sure to angle your lower leg (tibia) to a higher degree if you want to train more accelerative qualities.
3. It's functional for humans, as we do move using one leg at the time.
4. The reverse lunge has an extremely low risk for injury or pain in the lower back compared to the squat and deadlift.
5. It's great for the development of hip and core stability. You can increase these effects by loading asymmetrically – hold a dumbbell with the opposite hand of the working/front leg. – Eirik Sandvik
