If you can't pistol squat, you're not /fit/. Simple as.

I can't pistol squat
>>
>>77174868
I do a pistol box squat
>nooooooo you can't use a box
while balance wise it's easier, physically it's harder as the stretch reflex/rebound is removed. you're just a tryhard fagboat

more about balance than it is about strength or fitness in general, same with one armed push-ups. I would say as long as you can do 10 reps you are strong enough to do at least 1x pistol squat.

>removing the hardest part of a squat makes it harder
holy cope
>>
>>77174936
it's not hard for you because you have favorable leverages. im making the part that actually matters harder and reaping more results because of it.
>>
>>77174902
Balance is just strength of your minor muscles.

>>77174868
your dad does this right on top of my dick and moans like a schoolgirl
>>
>>77174868
Seriously how do you train yourself to do this? I can barely do it with my right leg. My left leg is too weak for that somehow.
>>
>>77175618
I'm a DYEL and can do 3 on both left and right. It's probably just a balance thing for you. Just try over and over
>>
>>77175618
Just hold on to something until you can do it on your own.
>>
>>77174868
The opinions of homesexuals on a nazi anime image board are incidental to me.
>>
>>77175618
Do one legged leg press and then do them while holding onto something with like a weighted backpack I would guess.

>Start doing pistol squats
>Red part cramps up immediately
>What do?

>inb4 grab toes
that's cheating

I can do pistol squats and pullups without having set foot on a gym in over 10 years

You have to get the feel of it first
Assume the position with your legs but you are sitting on your ass on the floor.
You should be leaning back so your extended leg is pointing up at 45 degrees, and your squatting leg coiled but it's foot not touching the ground.
Rock forward in a controlled manner until your squatting side foot plants on the ground, then push off at that moment using the assistance of the inertia provided by the rocking motion. Keep the toes of your extended leg out and stiff, that leg doesn't get to touch the ground or it will throw your balance off, paradoxically
Practice this a couple of times you'll eventually get the balance and coordination and you will become an UBERATHLETE or so the faggot OP thinks.

why are you in this board then
>>
>>77177307
Dont focus on keeping the up leg befectly straight. I used to have your problem, just have the hip flexor hold up the leg
>>
>>77174868
I can pistol whip you
>>
>>77177307
Grab balls
>>
>>77174868
Pistol squats, flagpoles, up and overs(or as retarded yurupoors call them "muscle ups"), and a 6 minute mile you're not in shape. There are plenty of other markers but these seem to be the most consistent, universally speaking.
