Single-leg workout ( 120 Kg’s) hit different when you focus on desired range, precise foot placement, and zero momentum. 🎯🔥
Unilateral work exposes every weakness—fixing strength imbalances, building single-leg stability, and maximizing hypertrophy without overloading the spine. Save this for your next leg day! 👇
Primary Joint Actions:
Concentric Phase (Push): Knee extension combined with hip extension and ankle plantarflexion.
Eccentric Phase (Lowering): Controlled knee flexion, hip flexion, and ankle dorsiflexion.
Foot Placement Dynamics: High and central placement shifts torque demand toward hip extension, increasing gluteus maximus contribution while keeping knee shear stress manageable.
Primary Agonists:
Quadriceps Femoris: Rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and vastus intermedius drive terminal knee extension.
Gluteus Maximus: Primary driver of hip extension out of deep hip flexion at the bottom of the rep.
Synergists & Stabilizers:
Hamstrings (Biceps ...
