Bodyweight Low Split Squat
A split squat from an extra-long stance, the hips sinking low between the feet while the rear leg stays long behind.
How to do it
Setup
Feet an extra-long stride apart, rear heel up, arms at the sides.
Steps
- Sink the hips straight down between the feet.
- Let the front knee travel forward, rear leg long.
- Drive up through the front foot.
Common mistakes
Rear knee bending into an ordinary lunge: keep that leg long. Front heel lifting as the knee travels: press it down. Torso folding forward: the hips go down, not back.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
