The single leg noodle slide is a very effective exercise that targets your lower body muscles. Sliding the noodle along the floor with straight legs adds to strength, balance and flexibility.
Make sure to stretch and warm up properly before doing this kind of exercises. And always maintain good posture. |
Stand on the noodle with one foot behind your hips. Put your other foot in front, under your hip. Keep your back straight and your hands by your side.
Slide the noodle against the floor while keeping both your legs straight. Make sure to move the whole body back, along with your leg, while keeping straight back. Use your hands to help with balance but focus on working with your lower body muscles.
Inhale as you slide. Exhale as you pull your leg.
Targeted Muscles:
Use your glutes to slide and use your hamstrings and quadriceps to pull.
