Bulgarian Split Squat (Cable)

Form Cues

• Attach a D-handle or rope to a low cable pulley.

• Place a flat bench about one step length behind you.

• Stand facing the cable with the handle held at chest level with both hands (goblet-style).

• Place the top of your rear foot on the bench.

• Lower by bending the front knee and dropping the rear knee toward the floor.

• The cable pulls you forward — resist this with your core and stay centered over your front foot.

• Lower until your rear knee is just above the floor, front thigh roughly parallel.

• Drive up through the front foot, keeping your torso upright.

• Keep the front knee tracking over the toes, not caving in.

• The forward cable pull adds anti-lean core demand on top of the unilateral leg work.

• Complete all reps on one side before switching.
