Single Leg Squats Equate to HOW Much Weight?!?

Описание: One of the most overlooked exercise for longevity is the skater squat. This single leg exercise challenges not only your strength in the sagittal plane, but the frontal plane as well. Strength will be required to perform the concentric portion of the lift, but you will also need strength and stability in the hips to make sure that you are not moving side to side.

While you may be a strong squatter, this will likely humble you; performing this single leg exercise means that you are lifting 100% of your bodyweight on one leg. If you were to hold half your bodyweight in dumbbells while performing the skater squat, you would be equivalent to a 2x bodyweight bilateral squat.
