You’ve been warned
It’s not hyperbole to say that the goblet squat is one of the all-time greatest exercises for general fitness. They’re functional and easy on your joints, but hard on your glutes and core.
If you’ve already nailed the basic move, try this twist to build even more muscle: Add three small pulses at the bottom of each rep, says Men’s Health Australia Training Advisor Cam Byrnes.
The pulses sneak in extra volume, Byrnes says, which in turn leads to greater muscle growth.
Use the goblet pulse squat as a finisher at the end of your next heavy legs workout.
Do 4 sets of 10 reps. Rest 30 seconds between sets.
