Barbell Hip Thrust: Triset

For this exercise, start with grabbing one Kettlebell at a weight that feels comfortable to you. 

Now, there are a few ways to set this up: depending on what you have available, we could use a bench, box, single leg squat roller, or a barbell pad secured on a rack. 

In the video, I’m using a foam box, however, feel free to use a bench, or whatever you have available. 

To find a good foot position, sit down on the bench and extend one leg out. Where ever your foot lands, that’s where your starting position for the Bulgarian is. 
Now, set your back foot onto the bench/pad/roller and secure it. Then, squat down to pick up the weight. 
Ensure your shoulders are pulled down and back, and engage your core. Keep your hips and back inline. 
Check your feet position: if your knee is going to far over your heel, step forward slightly so your knee is more inline with your heel. 
Next, rep out the split squats, keeping your gaze on the ground ahead of you to keep your neck neutral. 

Repeat the reps on one leg, rest, then repeat on the other side.

Dumbbell bulgarian split squat

- Get into position and place the bottom of your foot on the handle
- Push back and up with your foot and extending your leg upwards, squeezing your glutes and engaging through your core. 
- Lower your leg back down
- Complete desired reps then repeat on the opposite side
