Make sure gluteal muscles on the balance leg are contracted during all exercises to help stabilize the lower extremity.
Exercise examples:
- Single leg balance
- Single leg balance reach
- Single leg hip rotation (internal/external rotation of hip)
- Single leg lift and chip (medicine ball crosses body in diagonal)
- Single leg throw and catch (Progression: (1) trainer throws ball at various heights (2) increase distance between both people (3) increase velocity of each throw
