If you’ve been struggling to go heavier on your split squats or keep feeling them mostly in your quads, try this. Instead of a bench, elevate your back foot with a few weight plates and keep your stance a little narrower. It helps you drive through your front heel and target your glutes so much better. This small change made a huge difference for me.

Hi girls 🤍 Wanted to show you the real behind the scenes of me struggling, learning, and continuing to grow through training. Lately I’ve been working with a trainer who has me training more athletically focusing on explosive movements, stability, strength, and power. It’s definitely out of my norm since I’ve spent so long training in a hypertrophy style with 10–12 reps, and now I’m mainly doing 8 reps with more intentional movements. I’ve been with him for a little over a month now and I can already tell my power and single-leg strength/stability has improved so much. Growth isn’t always pretty, but challenging yourself is where the change happens.

Welcome ladies 🤍
