Get On Your Foot

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vv12_1Cih1w How much time do you spend on one foot? The answer is probably more than you think. Every time you take a step during walking you're standing on one foot.

Knowing this, it stands to reason that we should practice being on one foot when we exercise. However, most of the time when you look at people in the gym they have both feet firmly planted on the ground.

I can't think of any standing exercise that can't (eventually) be progressed to one leg. Start by standing on one foot for as long as possible. Then compare that to the other side. If there's a significant difference (>10 seconds), then work on evening the two sides by practicing extra on the worst side.

Once you can easily stand on each foot for 30 seconds, then you can begin working on different exercises like the one Dorothy is doing in the video.

If you need ideas for single leg exercises let me know. #StartingLine
