split squats
One-leg knee bends
Split squats are a lower-body exercise performed with one foot forward and one foot back, lowering the rear knee toward the ground while keeping the torso upright.
The stance resembles a lunge but remains stationary throughout the movement.
Split squats target the quadriceps, glutes, and hip flexors while challenging balance: Bulgarian split squats elevate the rear foot on a bench.
