By now, you’re probably well acquainted with the bodyweight squat, which you do daily without even realising it. That's right - you're squatting every time you sit down on the sofa and then stand up again. But have you heard about the arguably more effective single-leg squat variation, the Bulgarian split squat?
In my humble opinion, when it comes to strength training, compound movements like deadlifts, lunges and squats are the crowning glory of all workouts (and for plenty of reasons). For starters, they work multiple muscles at any one time, can streamline your workout and still deliver results. In short: they’re nothing short of magical. And a Bulgarian split squat is arguably more effective, working your hamstrings, calves, quads and glutes while testing your balance, strength and core.
