Pistol (One Leg Squat)

Preparation
Lift one leg forward and try to keep it straight and tight as much as you can throughout the exercise. Don’t compromise quality for quantity.

Movement
Start squatting on one leg, very slowly. Keep your foot on the ground, balancing more of your weight on your heel. Keep your back erect. Squat all the way down.

Movement back
Start going up, keeping your weight just like on the way down, on the heel. Keep your body erect and try not to loosen or bent the front leg.

Note: If you are not feeling strong enough to do the exercise, or you experience difficulty, you can assist yourself holding onto a desk, or another object. You may also try to start with squatting shallower.
