Single Leg Skater Squat to Single Leg Hop

-April 6th, 2020-

Here is a great exercise, needing no equipment at all, that is perfect for all lacrosse players.

Single leg strength is key, and this exercise trains single leg strength as well as single leg balance and will help reduce your risk of ACL injury.

You cannot get more bang for your buck from an exercise.

Give it a try. Start with 6 reps each leg and increase reps by 2 every week for 4 weeks.

Here’s an advanced exercise you can do at home with no equipment. Skater Squat to Single Leg Hop (stolen from @jonchaimberg). Goal is to lower as slow as you can and only let your back knee touch the pad/pillow/ground. Your back foot cannot touch the ground. We’ve been doing Skater Squats a lot lately @dynamic_athlete (well, before the shutdown) and the Single Leg Hop just adds to the difficulty. I’m holding 2.5 weights but they are just as a counterbalance. You can use nothing, or soup cans, or wine bottles… Shout out to Hunter for chewing his toy beside the camera and also for the Big Bootie Mix volume 16 for playing a slow song during these reps. #PunchIn #homeworkout #bodyweightworkout #LifeIsGood #onlinetraining
