How to do it

  1. Stand on one leg and slowly swing the other leg forward and back, keeping it straight and letting it travel in a smooth, controlled arc - behind you, then out in front.
  2. This is not a momentum move: the slower you swing, the harder your standing leg and your balance have to work.
  3. Keep your torso upright and steady, complete your reps, then switch legs.
