Q & A for The 16% - Front Foot Elevated Split Squat vs Front Heel Elevated Split Squat - BillHartman

Hope you’ve had a great week. Let’s wrap it up with a great Q&A question regarding how you can manipulate the front foot in a split squat to promote different elements of propulsion. Get your @neurocoffee and give this a watch.
From Mike:
When do you choose a HEELS elevated split-squat, versus solely a FRONT FOOT elevated split-squat?My assumption would be that it's based on the desired foot position. For instance in a heels elevated variation, you're really biasing the foot/ankle towards plantar flexion and early propulsion, so this would be good for someone who needs that posterior weight shift but trends towards a late propulsive foot.The standard front foot elevation would be for someone who has a more balanced foot position, but needs posterior expansion/weight shift. Am I anywhere close to the right track here?

Hi Bill, for a narrow ISA with an anterior pelvic orientation and flat pelvic turn to the right, is left heel elevated goblet split squat and right foot elevated ipsilateral load split squat a good idea?

It can be.
