Front Foot Elevated Split Squat

Last Week we introduced the Good old Fashioned Split Squat. If you missed it just scroll back a few posts and give the caption a once over because we tried to pack as much information in there as we could 🤯

This time we are stepping it up quite literally with a Front Foot Elevated Split Squat.
The set up is almost identical to the Split Squat but as the movement is to aptly named, we will be elevating the front foot.

AP is using a plyo-block and risers that you can practically find in any gym but any elevated stable service will do. If you're at home you can use your bottom stair or you can head outside and use a step or curb side. Obviously wherever you are, just make sure to be safe.

By elevating your front foot you add tension throughout your quad, hamstrings, and glutes. This helps create more stability in you hip than a traditional split squat. It also allows for a deeper range of motion.

Add it in to your next Leg Day and let us know how you like this progression!
