Single Leg Step Down

 

The single leg step down is a great lower body strengthening exercise that will help with a ton of common activities such as going up and down stairs, hiking, playing in the backyard with your kids, etc.

 

How it works:

– set up on a 12 inch box

– one foot on box, one foot off the side

– keep weight in right leg and push hips back for a hinging motion

– tap foot to the back to work those glutes and hamstrings

– stand back up

 

You can add weight to make it more challenging, or add another box!
