Force USA Bulgarian Squat Rack
The Force USA Bulgarian Squat Stand is a specialized training device for Bulgarian split squats—one of the most effective single-leg squat exercises for the quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes. With an optimal heel height and a stable, non-slip design, it makes the exercise safer and more effective than improvised solutions using a bench or box.
Key Benefits
- Designed for the ideal height and angle for Bulgarian split squats
- A support surface for the rear foot relieves pressure on the ankle—for a smooth, natural range of motion
- Stable and non-slip, even when carrying heavy weights (dumbbells, a barbell on your back, or a weight vest)
- Single-leg training corrects muscular imbalances and allows for deeper quadriceps activation
- Versatile: can also be used for step-ups, elevated push-ups, and box squats

Applications
For strength trainers, athletes, and home exercisers who want to incorporate Bulgarian split squats into their training routine—especially valuable for anyone working on single-leg mobility, hip flexibility, and leg asymmetries. The elevated rear leg maximizes the range of motion and stretches the hip flexors—a combination that the standard squat does not offer.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I also use the squat support as a step or platform?
Yes. The support can also be used for other exercises such as step-ups, elevated push-ups, or box squats.
What body heights is the support suitable for?
It is suitable for most body heights—the distance between the support and the front foot can be adjusted depending on body height.
Can't you do Bulgarian split squats with a bench?
Yes, that works. However, the dedicated squat stand is more ergonomic, safer, and more comfortable for regular training.
Why Bulgarian split squats instead of regular squats?
You train one leg at a time, correct muscular imbalances, and achieve deeper quadriceps activation with a maximized range of motion.
