Kettlebell Goblet Single Leg Squat

Video coming soon...

The kettlebell Goblet single leg squat workout is designed to primarily engage the quads.

The kettlebell serves as a counterbalance, allowing for a deeper squat and increased quad activation.

By holding the kettlebell close to the chest, the core is also engaged, enhancing stability and balance.

While the workout may involve other muscles, the kettlebell’s role is to primarily target and strengthen the quads.

Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a kettlebell by the horns at chest level.
Shift your weight onto your left leg and lift your right foot slightly off the ground.
Keeping your chest up and core engaged, begin to lower your body by bending your left knee and pushing your hips back.
Continue descending until your left thigh is parallel to the ground, ensuring your right knee stays in line with your toes.
Pause briefly in the bottom position, then push through your left foot to return to the starting position.
Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
Switch legs and perform the exercise with your right leg.

Focus on your form: Begin by holding the kettlebell close to your chest with both hands, ensuring a firm grip. Stand tall with your feet shoulder-width apart, and shift your weight onto one leg.
Engage your core: As you lower yourself into the squat position, keep your back straight and your chest lifted. Engaging your core muscles will help stabilize your body and maintain balance throughout the exercise.
Control the descent: Slowly lower your body down, keeping your knee aligned with your toes. The controlled descent will activate your quadriceps, ensuring they are fully engaged during the exercise.
Drive through your heel: As you push yourself back up to the starting position, focus on driving through your heel. This will activate your quadriceps even more, allowing you to fully utilize the muscle group and maximize your strength gains.
Progress gradually: Start with a lighter kettlebell and gradually increase the weight as your form and strength improve. This will help you avoid injury and allow your muscles to adapt to the increasing demands of the exercise.
