Single-leg 'Good-morning' & 'RDL'
Bodyweight (BW) unilateral leg-strength
•
2m 42s
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 offers a significant intensity-increase by holding the foot with 1 or two hands, making use of mechanical DISadvantage to make it an endlessly-giving & staple context of practice).
RESOURCE CONTENTS:

The 'Pistol-squat'
THE WHAT:
A bodyweight squat, performed on one leg. Rather than simply an expression of raw strength, however, its controlled execution is significantly facilitated, or "blocked", by the in-/availability of lower-body ranges.As with the 'Shrimp squat', restrictions in ankle dorsiflexion prevent...

THE WHAT:
A simple unilateral (single-legged) entrance from standing to close-floor contact by integrating the 'pistol squat' to transition through levels in space and the 'Negativa pushup' (leg forward variation) to lower the body to the floor.Whilst essentially a lower/upper-body strength int...
