Elite Football Athlete, Mack Simpson, performing a heavy set of Single Leg Squats w/ Rear Leg Elevated

This advanced single leg exercise is very difficult to perform as it requires tremendous balance and body control (especially when you go heavy!)

These types of exercises have a great carry over to the athletic field as they incorporate and improve many different athletic qualities such as: ✔️ Balance and body control/awareness ✔️ Lower body strength ✔️ Speed ✔️ Injury prevention

We normally work single leg work in our training program as an accessory exercise, however, we do also incorporate it as a main training movement/exercises and go heavy (as Mack is in this video).
