TRX Pistol Squat — quadriceps compound exercise in the LIFTAG library

Compound · Weight × reps

Avoid pulling yourself up mainly with the arms or letting the knee collapse inward. Increase assistance or squat to a box for control; use less strap tension and greater range as single-leg strength and mobility improve.

HOW TO DO TRX PISTOL SQUAT

  1. Face the anchor and hold the handles with light tension, then balance on one foot with the other leg extended in front.
  2. Sit the hips down and back as the working knee bends and tracks with the toes.
  3. Descend only as far as you can keep the whole foot grounded, then push the floor away to stand while using the straps only as much as needed.
