You know, there is an exercise that always challenges me in the gym every single time. It's embarrassing, I'm always falling over. So, if I fall over, you just know that I'm going to do it for you anyway. So, it's the Romanian but with a single leg. I've got weights because I think it's easier almost to balance with the weights. So let's give this a shot. You know what the Romanian looks like. Now I'm going to take this here with the single, I'm going to keep my body like a board, so I'm not arching. I'm going to start to look down and notice, I'm coming up, I'm coming up, I'm going to tighten up and I'm going to come back down. Now, in the beginning stages, maybe you do this. If you start to feel it in your low back, take a break because you will kind of feel it because your butt muscle is flexed. My butt muscle on the other side is flexed. So, in fact, let me switch and do it this way for you. Tighten my butt muscle, come down, come down, come down, come back up. Single leg, you're trying for - wow, I'm really impressing myself, I haven't even fallen - you're trying for eight to fifteen on each leg. As a beginner, maybe five. Anything you can do with these, work up to them because they are very difficult, but once again, the difficult ones are the effective ones.
