Drop a ‘🔥’ if you prioritize unilateral work in your current split!

Why does the Bulgarian Split Squat belong in every hypertrophy program? 

It’s all about the stretch-mediated hypertrophy. By placing the lead leg in a forward position, you are putting the quads and glutes into a deep, loaded stretch that is nearly impossible to replicate with a bilateral back squat. Recent trends in sports science highlight this exercise for its ability to improve vertical jump height and sprinting speed due to the unilateral power output. If you want a balanced physique and functional durability, this is your primary movement. Put it first in your workout when your CNS is fresh.
