because you're using one leg, silly billy
Because squat strength does translate into any other exercise.
did you meant "doesnt"?
Don't split squats result in a stronger squat over time?
your back is stronger than your legs probably. Single leg exercises are almost pure legs while back squats are posterior chain and legs
yes
It requires stabilization that you've never trained before. Started doing them only 2-3 weeks ago after years and realised just how painful they were. Going to keep doing them weekly until I overcome them.
Der bulgarian split squat machst du einen dickenbooty
probably low bar squatting thats why bss is hard for you
many such cases with no powershitter exercises
Because squats use the posterior chain heavily while these are glutes and mainly quads. A bit like how you can legpress much more than squat.
I would only consider doing split squats after at least 1.5 miles of running. Anything less and my hamstrings are immediately raped without mercy
Going from two legs to one leg is never as simple as being half as strong. Same as when you go from barbell bench to dumbbell bench.
I do these using one 80-100lb kettlebell depending on what the gym I'm going to has. Are these good for replacing squats? I have a herniated disc and am terrified of squatting
sure, just dont neglect your lower back
i find if you hold the weight like a frontsquat/goblet sqt it hits the lower back pretty good
Sure, you lift weights.
But overall, you are unathletic and uncoordinated.
Do them like this instead so you are completely loading the weight on the front leg
is it easier or harder to balance that way?
easier and you're not over stretching and shifting weight to the rear leg
just tried it and its good, but i injured my left toe recently so i cant put it in that position (pic related) due to the pain, shame because it did seem better
gonna have to stick to the bench height bss
I like this pic and want to know more about what's going on here
what?
I wonder if there is a link to a video or something In the chain of replies you were responding to that might include what you're looking for
