One-­Legged Squats

  • Hold the magic circle between your palms, with fingers stretched forward. Press lightly inward on the magic circle.
  • Stand on one leg, and straighten the other out behind you, with your toes pointed to the floor. Distribute the weight evenly across your supporting foot.
  • Bend your standing knee so it comes directly over and not beyond your toes.
  • Hold the position for five seconds (that's "Mississippi" seconds!), then straighten.
  • Repeat 10 times. Switch legs and repeat.
  • Complete three sets of 10 reps on each leg.
