    I learnt from a previous video you did, I never thought I could do these and I didn't use my back leg to push through too, I now hold onto a bar at waist height in front of me to stabilise and keep my torso upright, and I put a mat on the floor so my knee hits the mat each time, I used to struggle to do 3, I can now do 2 sets of 10 with ease, so I shall definitely try increasing the height of my back leg.

    I intended to go to the gym this weekend instead, I just went rock climbing not once but twice this weekend and my hands fingers and forearms are quite sore and my forearms are now hard and veiny

    I got great results when I added Bulgarian squats.
    I find I get the best range of motion with these over regular squats.

    • @redefiningstrengthOC
      @redefiningstrengthOC  7 годин тому +1

      Love that you're using the full range of motion. Truly is the key!

    #3, yep! I was starting way too high and hated this exercise. Going lower has helped me out and I'm finally making progress with these.

    • @redefiningstrengthOC
      @redefiningstrengthOC  7 годин тому

      YES! Matching our range of motion to start is so key! Glad you have!

    I guess it's time to dust off the stepper that is just holding various bits of gym gear and use that for bulgarians instead of the chair as I do struggle with them. I certainly can't go knee to floor because my knees don't like it at all, but maybe a lower surface will make it more manageable.

    Excellent topic. Since I was diagnosed with a meniscal tear. I feel uncomfortable lately with Bulgarian split lunges. So I am practicing instead split lunges and progressively overload.. Thank you dear Cori❤️🇬🇷

      @redefiningstrengthOC thankfully I am one of the lucky ones. Haven't experienced any pain so far due to the fact I have strong legs. Defined quads. . Have been working out constantly most of my life. My orthopedic recommended to continue working out, lifting weight as long as I avoid jumping, and being careful while doing squats. (not lower than 90 degrees).Doctor also recommended to avoid high heels.. My dearest Cori I am grateful. My working out has saved me from pain. Thank you so much my dear♥️

    This morning I was doing the single leg deadlifts. I hate my squishy running shoes and couldn’t keep my balance. I reverted back to 80/20. Maybe barefoot?

      Spartans lived and fought barefoot. That warrior culture favored performance (effectively life and death for them) over everything.

      @@pizmotality8136 -stance simply means we are shifting the weight distribution in our feet from an even 50/50 to a 80/20 (sometimes referred to as a staggered stance). What does this mean? Basically, we are adding more load onto one leg to build additional strength. Hobbits too

    These are a no for me because of a wonky knee. Every time I try them my knee gets hurt.
    I had a dream about you last night! 😂 You were helping me work out but I don’t remember the rest of the dream.
