Get your Unilateral on!

Benefits of unilateral training

• Most likely you never train this way so that alone makes it good for you

• Helps the core by the body resisting the lean that wants to take place towards the loaded side of the exercise.Great way to work the function of stability with the abdominals and low back.

• Burns more calories-Having to work one side followed by the other takes twice as long as a normal set therefore creating more time under tension which will burn more calories.
