    Thanks for helping me solve this challenge! Bulgarian Split Squats have always felt lousy in my low back. At 5'2" with short legs even for my height, I was trying to use the bench. Per watching you, I've set up a stack of yoga blocks at 10" and surprise, surprise, no low back pain! These feel great. BW for now; excited to work up to weights with this at last. Hey, even old dogs (61) can learn.

I was screwing it up in a couple MAJOR ways, namely the height of the bench and starting with my foot ON the bench, ...and more. HUGE difference. Also the position of the feet with regard to the muscles being targeted. You made so many great points here. BRILLIANT. Thanks so much for sharing this!!!!!

      Megan Henry mmnnnah, I do both, it’s really doesn’t help that much, thanks though! I like this variation because it’s still taking the back leg out of action, so you’re loading the working leg only. There’s no need to have a more elevated leg if you think about it, I just kinda blindly followed what I saw everywhere else.
