Big props to the lady she's been doing the infamous bulgarian split squats the whole time!

1 year into gym and now doing this with 32.5kg db each hand. Absolutely a masterpiece exercise, glutes and quads killer

i have been doing this exercise for about 6 years now, and each year i learn something new about the execution of it. It is hard to do it perfectly but it is still my favourite leg exercise ever. Ps.: I say this but after that first excruciating set all I can feel is pain, despair and regret. Still love it tho.

These setup tips are absolute gold! I’ve struggled with these for as long as I’ve done them (nearly 4 years on and off) and I’ve just tried this setup method for the first time today (foot position from sitting in the bench).

It’s honestly like some sort of magic. The positioning and balance have never been this good EVER ! Thank you!

I don't know how anyone can give anything on this channel a thumbs down. The only issue I possibly have with his content is that it's so good, and there's so much of it, that it's hard to stop watching. "oh, angle mobility exercises!"

The stance set up tip is everything!!! I always waste so much time looking for my stance in this lift, thank you.

I did these yesterday for the first time and was 100% sure I was doing it wrong so I stopped. So happy to stumble across this video!

[chriso]

it´s cool to see your videos still getting better and better, i.e. short summary of your hints and cues at the end of the video! Your work is extremely helpful for all of us :)!

On another video - you insisted that a training bench is too high to do the BSS.. Here she is using a training bench ?

For many years I have had problems performing the exercise and either got injured or had a lot of pain in my hip. And now I was incredibly happy to get guidance from you, so thank you very much for helping people like me.

These are great tips, thanks😊 This is a fairly new exercise for me and being a 6’1” lady with really long legs I find myself constantly struggling to find the “right” distance. How you demonstrated this in the video is super helpful.

The best video on Bulgarian squat I've seen so far, thanks

[ameliabeckett]

Love your hints n tips, use them as often as I can 😊, thank you! X

[louieestrivo]

I love u doc. thank you for giving us proper forms and health exercises.

I love this exercise when I add 60 pounds or so and the the goal rep range is 5-10 reps… I hate this exercise when the goal is 15+ reps with less weight! The burn is so intense and I get out of breath quickly. It’s a great exercise and more people should do it.

Watching her knee go in looked so dangerous and painful, I hope everyone sees this and avoids these injuries, thanks for sharing this knowledge

[Linda.]

Brilliant instruction. Thank you so much 👍

[kevinroark]

This is my favourite YouTube exercise channel.

Opening your hip for external rotation is KEY for glute activation.
