Do this to grow your glutes & quads in the split squat! 

Save this post for your next leg session!

When you are biasing different tissue, this does not mean it is the ONLY muscle group working. It simply means it is taking the majority load.

When you are desiring to bias glutes,
1. Take a slightly longer stride to deprioritize knee flexion.
2. Initiate by bracing your core & dropping that back knee down, while trying to keep the front knee in alignment with ankle.
3. Have a slight lean forward while keeping the spine & head positioning neutral.

When you are desiring to bias quads,
1. Take a slightly shorter stride than your normal ‘step’ length, & this will prioritize knee flexion.
2. Initiate by bracing your core & drive that front knee forward, the @primefitnessusa wedge will allow for to have greater knee flexion.
3. Stay vertical with your upper body & keep your spine & head positioning neutral.

Only elevate the back foot enough to not allow the knee to run into the ground, & loading w/ DBs in both hands will allow for greater balance overall.
