Exercise Demo: How To Do a One-Legged Squat with Beginner Mods

This exercise is extremely difficult, so if you need to start with the beginner's mods, it is totally okay!  This exercise will work almost every muscle in your legs and glutes.  Keep ALL OF YOUR MUSCLES tight.  Tight legs, glutes, core...shoulders should be back so you stand tall.  Push your hips back as you lower down so that you knee does not extend beyond your toe.
