In this video, Dr. Aaron Horschig breaks down the fundamentals for performing a perfect Bulgarian Split Squat. These include:

a. Stance length
b. Height of box
c. Stance width
d. Foot position (front and back)
e. Pressure into foot.
f. Movement (don’t seesaw – try to be vertical)

Considerations for injury rehab: If the front foot is too close to the bench the athlete will have to to drive their knee far past their toes during the lunge, which early in the rehab process from many knee injuries could place too much stress on patellofemoral joint and patellar/quad tendons and increase symptoms (for someone without knee pain, this is not necessarily a bad thing).
