Split Squats

Start in a staggered stance with one foot forward and the other foot behind you. Most of your weight should stay on the front leg. Lower straight down by bending both knees until the front thigh is near parallel to the floor and the back knee moves toward the ground. Drive through the front heel to return to standing. Complete all reps on one side before switching legs. Key Focus: Keep torso tall and core braced Front knee tracks in line with toes Majority of weight stays on the front leg Control the descent, avoid bouncing at the bottom This exercise builds single-leg strength, improves balance and stability, and helps address strength imbalances between sides.
