SINGLE-
LEG
EXTENSION
Mr. O says:
“When I’m doing
extensions late
in the workout,
obviously the
quads are
already warmed
up. So now I’m
just trying to
fatigue every
last muscle
fibre at the end,
and doing the
exercise one
leg at a time,
isolating each
side individually,
helps me do that.
Doing the move
unilaterally is
also good for
ensuring
balanced
development
from side to
side.”
SINGLE-
LEG CURL
Mr. O says:
“I always like to
include at least
one single-leg
exercise when
training
hamstrings,
just for balance
and making
sure one side’s
not getting
stronger than
the other.
You can do
one side at a time
for any variation
of leg curl—lying,
seated, or
standing.”
