Bulgarian Split Squat

    Muscles: close

  • Quadriceps femoris

How To Do Bulgarian Split Squat

1. Find a stable implement (a bench or a chair) and place the left foot hip-distance in front of the right one. Your core should be engaged, your shoulders should be back and your eyes and chest should face forward.

2. Raise the right leg off the ground and pulace it on the bench behind you.

3. Check your balance and distance between the feet. Your feet should not be on the same line as that will make it difficult to balance.

4. Bend your left knee and lower downard. Maintain position and push upward. The right knee is used only for balance and should bend by itself.

5. Switch the feet and repeat

The exercise can be done without weights, with dumbbells or a barbell.
