Stripping The Pistol Squat - Learn & Master The One-Legged Squat

20 Easy to follow lessons + PDF notes + Demonstrations

What if I told you that by adding just one exercise to your training program, you would be stronger, more flexible and more coordinated and be able to run faster, jump higher and have overall better health?

Would it be worth investing the time to learn and practice?

If you answered "Yes", then I have just the exercise for you.

The one-leg squat, aptly named "pistol", is one of the most demanding and beneficial exercises for the legs in existence, and the only thing you need to get started is your body and the determination to succeed.

The Pistol Squat is particularly challenging. You hold your raised leg out straight in front of you and lower all the way down until the hamstring on your standing leg touches the calf. It’s a test of your mobility as well as your strength.

The course presented here will teach you everything you need to know to achieve the one-legged squat.

The course is divided into 20 short and easy to understand lessons. Each lesson focuses on one topic and presents step by step the techniques and strategies to not only achieve the pistol squat but also advanced progressions.

The Pistol Squat works most major muscle groups in the lower body and encourage greater core strength.

Muscles Used for Single-Leg Squats - One-legged squats work the same primary muscle groups used for running, including:

• Hips

• Hamstrings

• Quadriceps

• Gluteal muscles

• Calves

Hamstrings are located at the back of the upper leg and quadriceps are in the front part of the upper leg. Gluteal muscles, also referred to as buttocks muscles, attach to your hamstrings from above. Calves consist of the soleus and the gastrocnemius muscles and are located at the back of your lower legs.

Supportive muscles used during one-leg squats include the upper and lower abdominals and biceps. Because the exercise relies on your abdominal and gluteal muscles for balance, performing pistol squats regularly can help tone and strengthen your midsection while building leg strength.

This translates to better movement and coordination during sports performance and other activities

This course contains my 15+ years of experience with bodyweight squats.

There is a lot here…and I’ve eliminated what you don’t need, what would actually stand in your way to getting results.
