TRX Single-Leg Squat
The pistol squat holding TRX handles at the chest; the straps help at the bottom, so depth comes before strength.
How to do it
Setup
Facing the anchor, handles at the chest, on one leg, the other forward.
Steps
- Sink all the way down on the standing leg.
- Keep the free leg straight and off the floor.
- Stand, letting the straps help only as needed.
Common mistakes
Rowing yourself up with the arms: the leg lifts; the straps only assist. Standing heel lifting at the bottom: sit back into the straps. Free leg dropping: keep it straight out in front.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
