Single leg press
Preparation
Fix the sled so that you can lie under it with your leg bent.
Starting position
One leg is bent and the ball of the foot touches the tip of the horn. The other leg is also bent and the foot is placed on the floor. The back rests completely on the floor - no hollow back. The arms lie relaxed and stretched out at the side.
Execution
Slowly and evenly move the leg upwards with pressure from the thigh until it is almost stretched. At the end of the movement, stretch the foot as far as possible. Then slowly and evenly return to the starting position (until just before the stop). Keep your knees stable throughout the exercise.
Hint
This exercise mercilessly reveals weaknesses in the muscle chain. This manifests itself in jerky movements when lowering. After a few training sessions, this will improve to the point of a flowing movement.
