The barbell step up strengthens the hip extensors (glutes, hamstrings, hip adductors), and knee extensors (quadriceps). These muscles are called upon daily in our everyday lives and are critical for performance in sport and recreation. The barbell step up is a great exercise and can be used to build strength, definition and size. Varying the height of the step is a great way to challenge your muscles to adapt. Select a step height that creates a 90 degree angle on the lead leg.
