Single Leg Push-off
How to perform
- 01Stand on the ground with one foot resting on the box, heel close to the edge.
- 02Push off with your foot on top of the box, trying to gain as much height as possible by extending through the hip and knee.
- 03Land with the same foot on top of the box, returning your other foot back to the start position.
Form cues
- Brace your core before the first rep and keep it braced.
- Drive through the full range — do not cut the lockout short.
- Control the lowering phase — that is where most of the growth stimulus lives.
Common mistakes
- Using momentum instead of the target muscle.
- Cutting the range of motion short to add load.
- Adding weight before the movement pattern is clean.
