The spassov squat is an effective exercise for the quads and glutes, and is performed by adopting a split squat position with the trailing leg suspended on a gym bench. This increases the intensity of the squat movement by challenging balance and also works each leg independently. Below you'll find a video guide and step by step instructions that describes the correct technique for the spassov squat.
