Coaching & session plan
BW12-090 · Single-Leg Preparation01 Prepare · 00:00–02:00
- Easy march or seated march · 60 sBegin slowly and check your space.
- Comfortable movement rehearsal · 60 sUse easy versions of the first two stations; extend preparation when needed.
Readiness comes before the clock. Take extra preparation or pause whenever needed.
02 Main work · 02:00–11:00
Follow exercises 1–6 in order, twice. Each 45 s station holds up to 30 s work and at least 15 s recovery or transition.
Effort: 5–7/10; finish with 2–4 good repetitions in reserve. These are 12 station exposures, not 12 maximal strength sets.
03 Scale & progress
Use the easier option named on the exercise card, shorten the lever or range, and stop the work early. Pause the clock when additional recovery or setup time is needed.
Repeat this selection until the target can be completed with stable technique on two occasions. Then change one variable only: range, repetitions within the time cap, or modest resistance. Never progress just to fill the timer.
04 Recover · 11:00–12:00
- Easy walk / march and settle · 60 sEase the pace; do not stop abruptly if still breathing hard.
Exercise cues, sides & easier options
1
Chair-supported split squat · 2–3 reps / side
Keep the whole foot supported. Bend within a controllable range, then stand without bouncing or collapsing inward. Match both sides; the displayed dose is per side. Use about 3 s per repetition and up to 5 s to change sides; the cap includes both sides.
Easier: Chair sit-to-stand
2
Wall push-up · 5–8 controlled reps
Place hands on a fixed wall and step back to a manageable angle. Keep the body organised while bending and straightening the elbows. Use about 3 s per repetition unless a slower tempo is written. Stop when the target is reached.
Easier: Wall shoulder-blade push-up
3
Supported single-leg hinge · 2–3 reps / side
Soften the knees and send the hips back. Keep any load close; stop before the trunk position becomes difficult to control. Match both sides; the displayed dose is per side. Use about 3 s per repetition and up to 5 s to change sides; the cap includes both sides.
Easier: Wall-target hip hinge
4
Supported clock taps · 5–8 controlled reps
Use a fixed support nearby and look ahead. Work inside a controllable range; stop or reset after a loss of balance. Use about 3 s per repetition unless a slower tempo is written. Stop when the target is reached.
Easier: Supported semi-tandem stance
5
Wall side plank · 8–10 s / side
Breathe throughout and keep the pelvis quiet. Shorten the lever or range before the back arches or the shoulders lose support. Match both sides; the displayed dose is per side. Do side 1, take up to 5 s to switch, then side 2. Rest for all unused time.
Easier: Wall forearm plank
6
March in place · 15–25 s comfortable rhythm
Use a pace and route that keep steps controlled. Do not chase speed or breathlessness; leave space to slow down. Not a speed test. Recover for the remainder of the station.
Easier: reduce range, resistance or work time.
Before you start
Equipment: Chair; Wall; Chair / counter
Inspect supports and clear the floor. Chairs, steps and benches must not tip or slide. No improvised doorframe anchors, glass weights or unverified hanging supports.
Unloaded shoulder-control drills do not provide the same progressive pulling load as rows. Do not treat this as a complete pulling-strength programme.
Stop any movement that causes sharp or increasing pain, dizziness or unusual breathlessness. No pain, calorie-burn or injury-prevention outcome is guaranteed.
