How to do Kettlebell Bulgarian Split Squat
Setup
Stand facing away from a bench or sturdy box with a kettlebell in each hand at your sides. Place the top of your rear foot on the bench and step your front foot forward until your stance feels stable.
How to do it
- Lower your body straight down by bending your front knee until your rear knee nearly touches the floor
- Keep your torso mostly upright and your front knee tracking over your toes
- Drive through your front heel and midfoot to return to standing
- Complete all reps on one leg before switching sides
Watch out for
- Pushing off the rear leg to assist the movement instead of loading the front leg
- Taking too short a stance so the front knee collapses inward or jams far past the toes
