The Bulgarian Split Squat or Balance Lunge is a move you see all over social media. It’s even a staple in many standard gym training routines. Many say it is a “must-do” exercise or the “best” unilateral leg moves. But honestly, it’s slightly overrated BECAUSE it is so often done INCORRECTLY. It’s a move that’s far more advanced than we realize and many of us haven’t earned the variation we’re using. So we don’t see the full benefit of the exercise. And even end up injured from it. We wobble around and let our front knee cave in. We don’t lower down to the ground using the full range of motion. We rush through as we lose our balance. Our training should feel hard with purpose. We want every move to truly pay off and yield the best results as fast as possible. That’s why I wanted to share my favorite static lunge variation to start with and even variations of the Balance Lunge you may use instead. But before I do I wanted to share 3 key form tips if you are using the Balance Lunge to make sure you’re getting the most out of the exercise!
