Split Squat & Lunge

Osteopath and Strength & Conditioning Coach Michelle Andrews demonstrates the correct technique for a Split Squat, Forward Lunge and Reverse Lunge.

All 3 are great lower body exercises that address multiple deficits. For example the forward lunge is great for building strength in deceleration while the split squat is ultimately a strength and hypertrophy builder that can help you progress to single leg squats.

All 3 variations address unilateral (single sided) capabilities and are great for achieving hip and knee control.

Start with 3 sets of 8 reps on each side, 2-3 times a week and progress gradually from there.
