For strong and flexible legs
This exercise is simple and very functional; it builds strength and flexibility in the same time. Spread out your feet and flex one leg and keep the second leg straight: you’ll stretch the adductors while strengthening the first leg.
Do one leg at a time or alternate both legs. Start with a comfortable range of motion, then go deeper. Keep your back straight.
If you are a beginner, you’ll get a good leg workout with this exercise.
Now, if you are in shape, you can practice the one leg squat: it’s easier to use a stability ball for balance, but it will be a challenging exercise for many.
It’s excellent for joint stabilization (ankle and knee), and it builds real strength in the entire leg.
Start with a range of motion you are comfortable with; the goal is to flex the leg at 90°. Focus on your lateral stability, you have to do perfect reps; at the beginning it’s current to be able to do only 2 or 3 reps: it’s ok, you’ll build up the number from there and you will get strong legs in record time!
