Smith Front Leg Elevated Split Squat

Set the bar on a Smith machine at shoulder level and stand in a split stance with your front foot elevated on a low platform or step. Place the barbell across your upper back and keep your core engaged. Lower your body by bending your front knee until your front thigh is about parallel to the floor while keeping the rear foot on the ground. Press through the front heel to return to standing with controlled movement. Perform all repetitions on one side before switching to work both legs evenly.
