🔥 WHY YOU NEED BULGARIAN SPLIT SQUATS IN YOUR TRAINING! 🔥
If you want stronger, more defined legs and glutes, Bulgarian split squats are one exercise worth mastering! 🍑🦵🏼
Here’s why I love them:
✨ Builds your glutes – Great for targeting the glutes and helping build strength and shape.
💪🏼 Strengthens your quads – Your front leg does the majority of the work, making it brilliant for lower-body strength.
⚖️ Works each leg individually – this is my main reason for doing them! Unlike squats, you can’t rely as much on your stronger side, helping improve strength imbalances.
🔥 Challenges your core – You need to stabilise your body throughout the movement, so your core gets involved too.
🏃🏼♀️ Improves balance & stability – The single-leg nature makes your muscles work harder to keep you controlled.
📈 Great for progressive overload – Once your bodyweight version feels comfortable, you can add dumbbells and gradually increase the load.
And let’s be honest… they’re HARD! 😂🔥
But that’s exactly why they work.
Tip: Keep your front foot planted, control the lowering phase and focus on driving through the whole foot rather than rushing the reps.
Save this one for your next leg day! 🍑💪🏼
