Pistol Practice

10 Pistol Squats per leg

Result:  After a 5km trail run and stretch (calves, glutes, hip flexors) was able to do three sets splitting the squats up into 5-2-3 reps per leg.  I needed the support of a 10kg plate under my heel for the first set then I needed both the plate and an 8kg kettlebell counter weight for the second and third sets.
