| Description: | Consider a self spotting option by placing dowel (wall, chair) in hand opposite to leg on the ground. Maintain an upright and neutral spine and head. Lower like a 'bobbing bird' keeping the back leg, spine and head in a straight line. Lower until you feel tension in the posterior structures of the leg. Slowly come back up by engaging the gluts and hamstrings and continuing to maintain a straight line as described above. | ||
