Single Arm Single Leg Curl and Press | Corrective Exercise for Total-Body Control & Stability
In this video, Dr. Ken Kaufman, sports chiropractor and MLB consultant, demonstrates how this exercise builds core stability, shoulder strength, and hip control — essential for athletes and active adults looking to perform at their best.
✅ Why It Works:
Develops total-body coordination and neuromuscular control
Improves balance, stability, and cross-body strength
Builds shoulder and core endurance under dynamic movement
Enhances athletic efficiency and injury resilience
🏋️♂️ How to Perform:
Stand on one leg while holding a dumbbell or resistance band in the opposite hand
Engage your core and perform a bicep curl, maintaining balance
Press overhead in a smooth, controlled motion while keeping your spine neutral
Lower with control and repeat for 8–10 reps before switching sides
Perform 2–3 sets per side
💡 Pro Tip: Move slowly — control creates strength. Focus on maintaining hip and shoulder alignment throughout the curl and press.
