Sets: 2-3

Reps: 10 each leg

• Balance on one leg with the knee slightly bent. Hold a medium to heavy DB in the opposite hand.

• Inhale as you lengthen and lower down. Feel your glutes and hamstrings controlling the descent. Anchor through your full foot. Lower to about mid-shin level.

• Exhale and draw in your core, press through the foot to come up to stand.

• Keep your hips square. Extend and lift the back leg out as far as the trunk goes forward.

• You should feel this working mostly through the standing leg at the glutes and hamstrings.

• Practice single leg control and balance here.

Modifications:

• Take a finger tip to the wall for balance as needed, aiming to progress away from the wall.
