Throughout my speaking and training, I advocate single leg strengthening.\u00a0 Additionally, I try to incorporate balance and stability training progressions that target common muscle imbalances and reduce injury risk.<\/p>\n

It\u00a0is common knowledge that the hip can often affect the knee.\u00a0 Likewise, the foot and ankle complex can also impact the knee.\u00a0 Single leg training often exposes and corrects limb deficiencies and simulataneously improves function and performance.<\/p>\n

I have been producing a TRX functionally fit mini-series for PFP magazine.\u00a0 The first two editions focus on single leg suspension reaching progressions.\u00a0 I thought I would share those with you as there may be portions you can apply to your own training or to others.<\/p>\n

I use these progressions with runners, court and field athletes, and general clients alike.\u00a0 They work the entire kinetic chain and emphasize anti-gravity control in multiple planes.\u00a0 These progressions can be part of an advanced rehab regimen or fitness program.\u00a0 Below is a picture of the phase one sagittal plane reach:<\/p>\n
