Lateral Single-leg Step Squats - 4 sets of 10 to 12 with 30-to-45-sec rest breaks.
All squats target the major muscles in the lower body, which include the glutes, hamstrings, quadriceps
and calves. A lateral single leg step squat places a little more emphasis on the glutes and it also
challenges your balance.
You will need a prop to do this exercise, such as one or more thick books, a small stool or cinderblock.
Stand with your right foot on the prop and left foot spaced a little more than a shoulder-width away.
Keep your elbows bent and hands tucked into your chest, and lower yourself down by bending your
knees. Stop when your thighs become parallel to the floor and rise back up.
Press your weight down into your foot and lift your left foot off the floor. Bend your left knee and stop
when your thigh becomes parallel to the floor. You should be balancing on your right leg at this point.
Step back out into your starting position, repeat for a set of reps and switch sides.
If you want to add more weight to this exercise, thread a towel through a full gallon water jug and
carefully position it on your upper back. Let the ends of the towel dangle over your chest and grasp each
end with your hands.
A gallon jug weighs 8 lbs. when full. Feel free to use a few of them if you are a stud and can handle the
extra resistance. Or you can empty the fluid and add sand, gravel or small rocks.
DONT STOP WHEN IT HURTS.
