Split Squats
These squats are somewhat similar to lunges. You need to place your front foot on the ground for doing a split squat, and your back foot has to be on its toes. Ensure that your front shin remains vertical in respect to the ground, and your back knee should also touch the ground. One thing to keep in mind is that you have to complete all reps on a single-leg before changing to the other leg.
Barbell Squat
Barbell squats emphasize squat variation and leg stance. To start with this squat, go with the back squats and follow up with the classic squat exercise. This will help open up your muscles and strengthen them further as these squats focus on the entire chain of leg muscles. They will also improve your butt, quads, calves, and hamstrings.
Bulgarian Split Squat
For a Bulgarian split squat, a setup is essential, including an excellent elevation object like a bench. This squat is also known as rear- foot elevated split squat. To perform a Bulgarian split squat, you first have to adjust the distance between the bench and the person doing it, keeping in mind that space is not too much, and don’t forget to test out some reps with three steps out and your back foot should stay on the bench. Just ensure that your front shin stays vertical to the ground and the back of your knee is touching the ground. Once you’ve found the proper distance and tried out some reps, you can add weights like dumbbells, barbells, or kettlebells.
