make sure if your doing step ups to try to not use the opposite leg..also try bulgarian split squats they are killer
ya, dorsiflex the foot on the ground hard, that'll diminish (somewhat, not completely) toe'n off on that leg. I don't like momentum on that either.
I prefer walking lunges over bss, but both are good.
cool set up adarq, you should make a more detailed version in your performance log, something similar to the jackm split post maybe? IDk just a thought
ya i need to drop a blog post, havn't done one in a while.
Why prefer the walking lunge over bss adarqui? I've done both but have probably dedicated more time to progressing on the BSS. I'd say the walking lunge is definitely safer than a barbell bss (balance can be an issue for some). I know it's probably minutiae, just interested.
a few reasons why I prefer walking lunges:
- the forward travel instead of vertical with bss
- the "ADA" component, there is a "drop" when you reach out with the front leg and land in a lower ROM, this causes a greater recruitment of mu's once you hit the ground..
- the ability to drive the back leg up when going into the next lunge
- stability/form is more natural than bss
that's pretty much all I can think of right now.. those are my most important reasons.
peace man
