Ultimate 1 leg Squat

I have seen a few good quality single leg squats on youtube, but no one seems to be taking it to the next level. Here's my version of a single leg squat: 30" bench, 10lb dumbbells, double leg takeoff single leg squat to OH press, opp toe touch, T-top to airplane rotation, back to single leg squat. No you show me yours!

Whats the benefit to doing this on a high platform? It seems necessary if you were going lower than ground level, so in turn you needed to go higher, but you arent going lower than the platform you're on

@weepaul666 explosive, then balance. In a way you are right simply doing a single leg squat would stimulate greater force if you were interested in hypertrophy. This has a more athletic application.

With so many guys trying to outdo each other on youtube, I suppose it was only a matter of time before somebody brought out the tape measure!

[jasoncscs]

@BlockedNasalPassages Actually if you check the date mine is a little old. Truth is there are plenty more impressive since this got posted. I just used the tape so that there was a mark of reference.

Wicked balance, strength, and focus there my friend.....was really intense how you jumped and then mounted the box with one leg.....very cool
