Topic description

Single-leg stand on the right (back facing the wall bars/long bench or swinging box), arms supported on the hips, free leg (left) hooked onto the wall bars/swinging box at hip height or supported on the long bench, bend the front leg (right) approximately to a right angle at the knee joint (buttocks approximately at knee height) and stretch back to the starting position.

Attention:
Keep the weight centred over the foot. Lower your body in the centre (like a plumb line towards the back knee, keep your upper body upright, tense your abdomen).

Lighten:
Reduce the distance between your standing leg and the support; lower your upper body less (greater angle in the front knee).

Harden:
Increase the distance between the standing leg and the support; additional weight (on the shoulders, with hanging arms or in a forward or upright position); unstable support for the standing leg.
