Pistol Squat

Cues:

• Lift one leg and lock the knee and point the toe
• Secure balance then lower under control into bottom of squat on one leg
• Keep non-squatting leg rigid as you stand
• Reaching forward with arms will help with balance

Mistakes:

• Bending non-squatting leg
• Allowing non-squatting leg to touch the ground
• Bouncing to compensate for a lack of strength in the squatting motion
