NEW TIMETABLE OUT NOW!

SPLIT SQUATThe Split Squat tones the thighs and buttocks while building

strength and power in the legs and lower back. This exercise

targets the Quadriceps, Gluteus Maximus and Erector Spinae

muscles. Not only is this a great exercise for lower body muscle

strength, it also promotes balance and flexibility.

Instructions:

Stand with feet far apart; one foot forward on top of the step

and the other foot behind. Squat down by flexing knee and hip

of front leg. Allow heel of rear foot to rise up while knee of rear

leg bends slightly until it almost makes contact with the floor.

The hamstring of the front leg should be touching the

nearest part of the calf.

Return to original standing position by extending hip and knee

of forward leg. Repeat and then continue with the opposite leg.
