Ahh the Bulgarian split squat – the exercise we all love to hate! There are some very minor tweaks you can make to this move that will help target the glutes & hamstrings or you can make adjustments so that the focus is more on the quads. What you choose will depend on your personal preferences and goals. Give them both a try!<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udf51\u00a0Glute & Hamstring Focus
\n– Use a wider stance
\n– Hinge forward slightly from the waist
\n– Keep the knee stacked over the foot
\n– Drive your hips down and back as you lower
\n– Push the hips forward as you raise and squeeze the glutes at the top<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udd25\u00a0Quad Focus
\n– Closer stance
\n– Keep torso more upright
\n– Drive knee towards toe as you lower
\n– Lower the hips straight down and back up<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
