@VELOCITY DC ANGELIQUE “SINGLE-LEG LEG PRESS VS. BULGARIAN SPLIT SQUAT… WHICH ONE ARE YOU PICKING? 👀🔥” Both will have your legs shakinggg, but let’s break it down real quick👇🏼 💥 Single-Leg Leg Press ✔️ More stability = better isolation on one leg ✔️ Less balance needed = you can lift heavier & control reps better ✔️ Constant tension on the muscle = hellooo growth 👏🏼 🔥 Bulgarian Split Squat ✔️ Tests your stability & coordination (aka it’s humbling 🫠) ✔️ Engages core & stabilizers more ✔️ Harder to progressively overload because… balance struggles are REAL 😅 If you find Bulgarians hard because of balance (not actual strength), single-leg leg press is your new bestie!! It lets you really focus on the muscle, push heavier, and take stability out of the equation. Tbh, both deserve a spot in your leg day, but if you wanna isolate & lift heavier → leg press wins! 🏆🔥 What’s your fave?

Glute Hyperextensions = 🍑 Growth If you’re sleeping on hyperextensions, you’re missing out on one of the best glute-building movements! But here’s the key—how you perform them makes all the difference. Holding the weight farther away (instead of close to your chest) increases the load on your glutes by shifting the resistance. More glute activation = better results. Here’s how to optimize your hyperextensions for maximum glute engagement (and NOT your lower back): 🔥 Tuck your chin & round your upper back – This keeps the tension on your glutes and stops your lower back from taking over. 🔥 Hinge at your hips – Think about pushing your hips back rather than just bending forward. 🔥 Hold the weight away from your body – Extending your arms with a plate or barbell shifts the resistance to your glutes. 🔥 Squeeze at the top – Fully extend your hips and squeeze your glutes for 1-2 seconds before lowering. 🔥 Control the movement – Slow and controlled reps will get you further than swinging up and down. Trust me, once you get these right, your glutes will be on fire. Who’s adding these to their next leg day? 🔥🍑 #GluteHyperextensions #GluteGrowth #LegDay #backextension #glutes #glutesworkout #glutesgrowth #glutestips
