Bulgarian Split Squat Form Fix

FULL BREAKDOWN IN CAPTION!

1️⃣Your platform to elevate your back foot is too high

❌If you notice your working legs knee pulling BACK, at the bottom of each rep, this is a good indicator that your platform is too high, which is causing your front leg to overcompensate for the back legs quad being lengthened, which pulls you out of hip extension

✅Look for a platform that sits below your knee, at about mid shin height

2️⃣Your chest is puffed and proud

❌This makes it hard to initiate the movement at the hip, therefor causing more knee flexion and quad activation

✅Hinge at the hip, before initiating the movement and bring your eyes to floor to maintain that position throughout the movement

3️⃣Your foot/leg placement is toooo wide

❌This is going to make it so much harder to maintain a good balance, making the movement feel so much more difficult than it already is

✅Try the 5 second Bulgarian split squat set up to get the perfect foot placement everytime, and keep a perfect distance between your legs for a stable split squat
