1-Leg Squat - DB, Goblet

Description

Starting Position: Set up with a box or bench behind you at the height where your thighs are parallel to the ground. Stand on one leg about 4-5 inches in front of a box or bench with your other leg about 1-2 inches off of the floor, holding a Kettlebell or dumbbell with both hands in the center of the chest.

Procedure: Squat down and back until your hips just touch the bench or box, and push through the hip to return to your original standing position.

Coaching Keys: During the squat, use the bench or box as a reference for depth and avoid actually sitting down. If you feel yourself dropping onto the bench or having to sit down, then use a pad to elevate the height you are squatting to.

Feel it: Working your glutes, hamstrings, and quads.
