spezzy Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I did my first real pistol squats with no assistance or weight for balance today. now, why is this such a big deal? this was one of my goals from my first challenge here on NF in AUGUST. This was before i started really lifting or doing anything serious. I just bought a book of exercises, saw the pistol, and said "OMGIWANTTODOTHAT!" It's the first thing I got really excited about working towards. Needless to say, I learned that they're ridiculously hard ridiculously fast I've had to work on gaining a ton of strength (thanks dantes!) and total flexibility (thanks alethea!) to get this down. so yeah. w00t!

JaysFreaky Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 So after reading this, I looked them up and attempted to do one. I can get down no problem, but getting up is a pain. I therefore give you infinite props. Quote Link to comment
spezzy Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 hahaha yes. getting down = flexibility, getting up = strength have added these into my regular schedule now, and have done sets of 10 still a little wobbily sometimes, but working on it! yayyyy pistol squats!
