What a coincidence...I've just started really making some serious goals with one-legged squats. I've been doing them to a box for a bit and I just found I could do some pretty good ones freestyle with full rom. So I'm setting a rep goal of 15 or so and then moving on...

It's a great idea because it should promote just the kind of stability AND mobility you need at the hips and ankles and that will go a long way toward keeping the knees healthy.

BTW, Dave, if you aren't already it's exceptable to hold a 5 pound plate out in front of you to help with balance.

One legged deadlifts would be a good idea as well. Basically, "romanians" on one leg...

LOL, Pavel's "The Naked Warrior" is a whole book devoted just to one legged squats and one-arm push-ups. So nobody buy that, haha....

Good luck with your thrusters.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
