How to do it
Brace your abs tightly before each descent to stabilize your pelvis.
- 1
Stand with your right foot on the ground and your left foot on a foam roller.
- 2
Shift your weight to the right leg and squat down, keeping your right thigh parallel to the ground.
- 3
As you squat, let the foam roller move laterally with your left leg extending to the side.
- 4
Push through your right heel to return to the starting position, bringing the foam roller back in.
- 5
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching sides.
Expert tip
Ensure the foam roller moves smoothly and control the lateral movement to maintain balance and proper muscle engagement.
