    Just started MAPS 15 and this is so helpful.

    I finally have pretty good form on this. I like to start from the bottom position to ensure I'm perpendicular to the floor.
    I add weight to it with one dumbell and also a pair. My Legs are always sore the day after!

    My first time doing this exercise, on the very first rep, my foot slipped off the bench and slammed into the ground toe-first. My big toe went "crunch" and fractured. That would be another reason NOT to try balancing on the ball of your back foot. I think I've finally worked up the courage to try again -- the correct way.

    You guys already blew up on Podcasts but I can't wait to see you guys blow up on CZcams. Real good content, keep it up you guys! Make something super controversial and I'm sure you will :)

    Hey guys, im a keen follower of your videos and podcast. Some of the best content available i think. Im not getting any gains on squats, which i am putting down to poor mobility. Would this movement with weight be a suitable replacement to squats whilst i work on better mobility?

    It would be cool if you could review other exercises to help work up to this for balance/stability. And is it helpful to use something lower? I've seen others say you can use an exercise step as low as 12 inches.

    Another variation is to bring the front foot in so your knee goes over your toe. This will emphasize the quads over the glutes.

    “This is a really difficult move” psh whatever that’s easy.
    Attempts at gym- movement sucks, balance unstable, glutes are not firing, can’t get knee to stop hurting
    FUCK!!!!
    Gets pad, stick, and slow movements completed 3 slow and controlled on each side. Shit, yea agree very difficult.
    It’s been about 1 month or so that I started to add these and today was the first time I added a 5lb kettlebell and I was able to concentrate on keeping my back straight. Felt the glutes, balance is a lot better, just awesome awesome!!

    I actually tore my meniscus doing that exercice...and I tore the leg that is up on the bench not even the one squatting. I assume I had the leg too high up

    Closer the plant leg to the box, still keeping knee behind the toes, the more quad (versus glute) emphasis???

    I'm really confused... I've watched different videos about how to perform bulgarian split squat the correct way and people give different advice when it comes to the hips and pelvic-position. Don't know what's right or wrong..

      phatty Quiroz you can use smiths machine to start with, it’s quite easy as you just focus on pushing through your front leg and don’t have to worry about balancing

    can someone explain how this is different than a lunge? not being a smartass

    • @TheEricrking
      @TheEricrking Před 2 lety +1

      Your leg is isolated and one leg isn't grounded to the floor. It's hard in my opinion because of balance, stability and the stretch of the leg not being used.
