Cable Split Squat

This exercise uses a lunge stance in a squatting motion to strengthen hips, thighs, and hamstrings. While split squats use many of the same muscles as conventional squats, they tend to prioritize the inner thigh, hamstring and glute muscles more. In this example, a handle attached to the low pulley of a cable crossover provides resistance. To keep torso square and maintain balance, hold handle in opposite hand from the front foot (ex. right foot forward / hold handle with left hand).
