How to move
- From a bound side angle you walk the feet together, stand up while keeping the bind around the thigh and torso, then slowly straighten the bound leg out to the side while balancing on the other foot.
Practice and cautions
Hold 10 to 20 seconds per side, 2 attempts, after a thorough warm up. Use a strap for the bind rather than forcing the hands together.
Skip it with shoulder impingement or instability, hamstring injury, or hip labral pain. Learn it beside a wall.
