The split squat builds single-leg strength and fixes muscle imbalances between your left and right leg. It targets your quads and glutes while improving your balance.
1. Stand with feet hip-width apart, then step your left foot back about 3 feet behind you 2. Lower your body by bending both knees until your back knee almost touches the ground 3. Keep most of your weight on your front leg during the split squat movement 4. Push through your front heel to return to the starting position 5. Complete all reps on one leg before switching to perform split squats on the other side
• Keep your front knee tracking over your toes during each split squat rep • Don't let your front knee cave inward - this breaks proper split squat form • Keep your chest up and core tight throughout the movement • Your back leg is just for balance, not for pushing off the ground
• Putting too much weight on your back leg instead of keeping it on your front working leg • Letting your front knee drift past your toes, which puts stress on the joint during split squats • Taking too short of a step back, which makes the split squat harder to balance
