Bryan Tan - Coach

I wish I was a better finance bro, and maybe I can make it to Wall Street one day.

Something to consider when it comes to health and fitness, you can’t just look at one aspect and generalise everything.

Consider all factors and improve them, compounding effect does wonders.

Bulgarians or rear foot elevated split squat - whatever you wanna call it. Constantly butchered and from what I’m judging, wrongly set up a fair bit for people who don’t have the range to begin with.

Having the typical high set up of placing it on a bench is really not necessary for most, a small elevation with a platform/plate should do the trick to address things like mobility and stability.

Moving from point A to B is cool, but helping my clients to understand positions to facilitate the movements and what the exercise can provide for you BEST is what I do on the gym floor. Individualised set up before Intensity to always keep things safe and build confidence.

Note how much more hip flexion I’m getting and also not sitting ‘back’ in to my right knee with the different set up? That’s probably a lot more ideal given the inability to remove the back quad out of the equation.

Have centre of mass over front foot > keep it forward as you descend > pause and suffer!
