Single-leg squat (left) ► assisted pistol squat

Partner work

1 trainee & 1 helper ► Note change of position
(= double the time required; for lesson planner see Organisation Kraft: Info button Execution)

Trainee: Single-leg stance, free (right) leg extended forwards, bend the standing leg to approximately a right angle and extend it back to the starting position.
Partner: Holds the active participant by the hands to prevent them from falling backwards.

Attention:
Knee of the supporting leg always remains behind the tip of the foot and centred over the foot (no tipping inwards).

Lighten:
Lower the upper body less (greater angle in the knee); more support from the partner.

Make it harder:
Additional weight; partner only helps to a limited extent; unstable base for the supporting leg

1 weight waistcoat ► to make the exercise more difficult (additional weight)
1 balance cushion ► to make the exercise more difficult (unstable base)
