Did you have ACL-Reconstruction surgery or any knee injury? Are you struggling to build your single leg strength and perform a single leg box squat? This video is for you!
In this video, Gabe goes over several exercises to be able to progress to an unassisted single leg box squat. Being able to perform single leg box squats to parallel with proper form is essential to return to running for numerous reasons.
First, it demonstrates your ability to co-contract numerous muscles during the lowering/eccentric and coming up/concentric portions of the squat, and the single leg squat test is often utilized by rehab specialists to assess your readiness to return to jogging.
