How to Do Single-Leg Balance

Why Single-Leg Balance Matters
Single-Leg Balance strengthens stabilizing muscles in the ankles, knees, and hips, helping football players stay in control during fast-paced play.
For football players, this means:
Better stability when receiving passes.
Reduced risk of ankle twists.
Improved body control in one-on-one situations.
Balancing on one leg trains your body to react and adapt quickly during match play.
