]]>You may think that it’s only possible to build upper-body strength in the gym, but that’s not true at all. Dally is a Nike trainer and muay Thai boxer who knows what she’s doing, so use her tips if you want to achieve results quickly. The workout doesn’t require you to have expensive equipment; you can do it with just a set of dumbbells.
Dally’s videos show four different moves that you can practice on a daily basis if you want. “Whilst we don’t have access to endless barbells and weights at home we have to think outside the box to find stimulus and stress for our body so it that it can adapt and give us those beautiful strength gains that we want!”, she wrote in the post caption.

Full collection dropping on the website tomorrow, hold tight! #HealthHubLdnIn the videos below, we see Dally breaking down the exercise into separate movements so you can master them individually before connecting everything. “A phenomenal body weight exercise. One that asks a lot of relative strength, mobility and good motor control. I’ll share some tips over the coming weeks to help you wherever you are on your journey. Swipe across to see a few drills for different aspects of the movement,” she writes.
The first video is for ankle mobility. It includes gentle rocks that help you work your ankles so you can perform pistol squats with ease. The second video is for building strength and balance. Dally says that step downs fine tune the mechanics of a single leg squat and work out your quads and glutes.
Video number three helps you improve while the fourth video is meant for you to improve strength and endurance in the non-standing leg.
PISTOL SQUATS Drills 
⠀ ⠀ A phenomenal body weight exercise. One that asks a lot of relative strength, mobility and good motor control. I’ll share some tips over the coming weeks to help you wherever you are on your journey. Swipe across to see a few drills for different aspects of the movement. ⠀ Vid 1: {Ankle Mobility}. These starter stretch gentle rocks will help to encourage a greater range of dorsiflexion of the ankle. This is often a limiting factor for people⠀ Your best bet is to perform these before your pistol squat practise ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Vid 2: {Build Strength & Balance}. Step downs are great exercise that fine tunes the single leg squat mechanics and eccentrically loads the quads & glutes and can be done at any height depending on where you’re at. You can do these on a step at home ⠀ 3x 8-10 ⠀ ⠀ Vid 3: {Improve Descent}. If you find the descent challenging and in particular find it difficult to hold the foot, using the band and pausing at the bottom can help to cement the movement pattern and allow you to build confidence in the tricky areas of the movement. ⠀ 3 x 8 ⠀ ⠀ Vid 4: {Improve Strength & Endurance in non standing leg} this drill is great if you are someone who often experiences cramping in the non squatting leg. Find a small object start at the bottom of the squat and keep the quad tense and leg lengthened and lift up and over the object. This will build endurance and strength in the rectus femoris which can fatigue and cramp easily⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Hope that helps! 
Let me know how you get on and which one helps you the most!The post Nesrine Dally Shows You How to Properly Do Pistol Squats appeared first on yourdailysportfix.com.
