SINGLE LEG STRENGTH 🧰 - Unilateral exercises are single-leg or single-arm movements. The primary benefit of unilateral exercises is the ability to train both sides of the body equally. It prevents overusing, overtraining or compensating with the dominant side, which helps to isolate and correct muscle imbalances which can aid in injury prevention and rehabilitation. Most people will have a dominant side of the body that they feel is stronger and more coordinated. Although this is normal, it can become dysfunctional when imbalances move outside this normal range. This creates muscular imbalances which become exaggerated when only performing bilateral (both sides working at once) movements. This creates asymmetries that can result in injuries or pain within the body. Including unilateral movements in your activation series and training program will work to counter any imbalances. #lowerbody #lowerbodyworkout #singleleg #singlelegtraining #lowerbodyexercise
