Split Squat – Barbell

1. Set up a barbell on a squat rack at shoulder height and load it with the desired weight.
2. Position yourself under the barbell, placing it comfortably across your upper back. Hold the barbell with both hands just outside shoulder-width.
3. Engage your core, step back and away from the rack, and position one foot forward and the other foot back, bending your knees.
4. Adjust your position so your back toe is on the ground and your forward knee is slightly bent. This is your starting position.
5. Lower your hips by bending both knees until your back knee is just above the ground. Keep your chest lifted and your front knee over your ankle.
6. Push through your front heel and extend your legs to return to the starting position.
7. Complete the desired number of repetitions and switch to the other side.
