The front foot elevated dumbbell split squat builds serious leg strength while fixing muscle imbalances. It hits your quads and glutes harder than regular squats.
1. Stand 2-3 feet behind a bench or step, holding dumbbells at your sides 2. Place your front foot flat on the bench, keep your back foot planted on the ground 3. Lower your body by bending both knees until your front thigh is parallel to the ground 4. Drive through your front heel to push back up to starting position for the front foot elevated dumbbell split squat 5. Complete all reps on one leg before switching to the other side
• Keep most of your weight on your front leg during the front foot elevated dumbbell split squat • Don't let your front knee cave inward - track it over your toes • Keep your torso upright and core tight throughout the movement • Lower yourself in a straight line - don't lean forward or backward
• Using your back leg to push off instead of just for balance during front foot elevated dumbbell split squats • Placing your front foot too close to the bench, which limits your range of motion • Rushing the movement instead of controlling both the down and up phases
