How to do Side Split Squat:

• Step 1: While standing up straight, hold a barbell on the back of your shoulders. The bar should be placed slightly below the neck. Place your feet wide apart; the lead leg should be angled out to the side. This is the starting position for the exercise.
• Step 2: Bend the knee and hip of your lead leg to lower your body towards the side of your angled foot. The opposite leg should be bent slightly. Inhale while doing so.
• Step 3: Extend the hip and knee of your lead leg to return to the starting position. You should be exhaling while doing so.
• Step 4: Once you have performed a set of reps, repeat the process with the opposite leg.
