SINGLE LEG SQUAT

TARGETS THE HAMSTRINGS, GLUTEALS & QUADRICEPS

Stand facing the system with arms extended, 

slightly bent at shoulder height. The system is 

used to self-spot and provide dynamic balance 

support.

Extend the free leg to the front and perform a  

single leg squat. Hold good posture and 

alignment throughout the exercise.

BALANCE LUNGE

CHALLENGES THE EQUILIBRIUM REFLEXES AND LEG STRENGTH

Stand on one foot (on the floor or on a 

stability device). Hold handles with arms bent 

at 90 degrees to the body. Shoulders stay 

aligned over hips during the movement.

Keep your hand position stable and your torso 

upright. Bend one leg back and lunge on 

opposite leg until the back knee hovers above 

the ground. Hold, then return to start 

position.
