The bodyweight pistol squat builds serious single-leg strength and balance. It crushes your quads while fixing muscle imbalances between legs.
1. Stand tall with feet hip-width apart and arms out front for balance. 2. Lift your right leg straight out in front of you, keeping it parallel to the floor. 3. Begin the bodyweight pistol squat by sitting back into your left heel and lowering down slowly. 4. Descend until your left thigh is parallel to the ground while keeping your right leg extended. 5. Drive through your left heel to return to standing position and repeat the bodyweight pistol squat movement.
• Keep your chest up and core tight throughout the entire bodyweight pistol squat movement. • Drive your knee out in line with your toes to prevent it from caving inward. • Use your arms as counterbalance - reach them forward as you descend in the bodyweight pistol squat. • Control the descent slowly rather than dropping down fast.
• Letting the knee cave inward during the bodyweight pistol squat instead of tracking over the toes. • Leaning too far forward and losing balance rather than sitting back into the heel. • Rushing through the bodyweight pistol squat movement instead of controlling the tempo.
