Great exercises! Only just recently added the bulgarian split-squat to the routine. Just with a naked 20kg barbell until I get the form and balance down! I'm still a bit sore in my right hip from doing a back squat a bit too deeply months ago 🤭

[@wildgingerruns]

Yep only a 20kg barbell ;) Nice work Andrew! I hope your right hip is ok soon!

Super useful video Claire, thanks! Pulls together a few different exercises I had been using and some handy new ones! Please may I ask where you got the padded adjustable stool and the barbell please?! Thanks

[@wildgingerruns]

The padded stool is my piano stool lol! And the barbell was on FB marketplace, far too short tho is hard to get it back over your head after squats with it! Defo get a wider one!

The deadlift looked a bit off. Wasnt all the tension in your lower back doing it like that?

Thanks for your comment!
