Single-Leg Bench Getup for Men

Single-Leg Bench Getup

  1. Sit tall on a bench with your back upright and naturally arched. Hold your arms straight out in front of your body at shoulder level, parallel to the floor. Raise your left foot off the floor.
  2. Without leaning forward, press your body to a standing position. (If you can't do this, try sliding your foot slightly back toward your body in the starting position.) Sit back down.
