Pistol Squats can be a GREAT tool to add to your arsenal, but believe it or not, limitations in mobility and strength in the antagonistic hip flexor 🦵🏻 can be the difference between the ability to properly perform a Pistol Squat, and not being able to. To be clear, the “elevated Pistol Squat” modification provided in this video can do 1 of 2 things: 1.) Remove the limitations that exist in that hip flexor so that you can truly focus on strengthening the glutes and quads of the plant leg. 🙌🏻 In this instance, you wouldn’t care about keeping the elevated leg straight, and could even begin loading the movement with external resistance as you gain strength. This option is not optimal for those of you who want to become better at the actual pistol squat, but is ideal for those of you that love the concept of utilizing an effective lower body bodyweight movement into your routine. 2.) For those of you looking to become skilled at the actual Pistol Squat, I would recommend using this option, focusing on keeping the elevated leg STRAIGHT, and slowly lowering the box over time. You will want to avoid external resistance, even if you are “strong enough”, as this will often cause you to take the focus off of the limiting factor ❌, the antagonistic hip flexor. Hope this helps, all you need is a box ⏹ and a ☁️ dream! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FIND OUT MORE AT www.MattPhelpsFit.com LINK IN BIO #Metabolic #MetabolicTraining #Workout #StrengthTraining #DailyWorkout #PersonalTraining #Training #Fitness #Motivation #MattPhelps
