Benefits:

The crossover split squat is another variation to a typical split squat that allows you to work other muscles and take the exercise to the next level. By getting into the crossover position you are placing the focus on the outside of your front leg and glutes, while also challenging the core to balance.

How To:

1) Get into a split squat stance with one leg in front of the other
2) With the back leg, move it over so that your legs are crossed
3) Perform a split squat lowering the back knee right behind your front heel
4) Complete all your reps before switching to the other leg

**TRAINERS TIPS** Keep your front knee facing forward and in line with your foot. Keep the shoulders and hips square, facing the front.
