Unilateral 'target-touch'
Bodyweight (BW) unilateral leg-strength
•
1m 8s
THE WHAT & HOW:
An oldie but a goodie - a task-oriented context for the exploration & development of unilateral squatting. Its intensity & complexity are entirely dictated by the practitioner, and you can work for either time on each leg (anywhere between 30-120"), or designate a number of sequences (anywhere between 1-4), and perform them in an alternating manner. Practice 2-4 sets, taking adequate rest between.

Single-leg 'Arc, reach, & Hip-open'
THE WHAT:
The 'Arc & Reach' is an integrated unilateral-stability & range-development context. It is comprised of a standing compression 'Arc' (pulling the STRAIGHT leg as HIGH as possible in the sagittal plane & drawing a half-circle to the back) & a unilateral, straight-leg 'hinge' pattern (the... -
Shrimp to 'arc & reach' integration
THE WHAT:
A unilateral integration which requests and develops strength & mobility through a convenient anterior/posterior-chain pairing: the isolated 'Shrimp squat', and already-integrated 'Arc & reach' (note that the 'Open/close'-hip patterning in progressions of the latter is NOT emphasised). ... -
Single-leg 'Good-morning' & 'RDL'
THE WHAT:
Due to the sheer strength-potential of the posterior-chain and limitations in applying "mechanical dis-/advantage" in form & structure, it is difficult to effectively load unilateral-hinging patterns without the addition of external load (unlike the 'Shrimp squat', for example, which of...
