Chest Press Single Leg (TRX / Suspension Trainer)

An advanced variation combining a single-leg stance with a chest press, requiring tremendous core stability and lower body strength.

Instructions

1. Anchor the TRX straps at mid-length.
2. Face the anchor point and grip the handles at chest height.
3. Walk your feet forward to achieve the desired angle.
4. Lift one foot off the ground, standing on one leg for the entire set.
5. Keep your lifted leg bent or extended, whichever allows better balance.
6. Keep your core engaged and your body in a straight line.
7. Press your body away from the anchor by extending your arms and pressing through your chest and shoulders.
8. Maintain single-leg balance throughout the pressing movement.
9. Pause at full extension, then lower back to the starting position.
10. Complete all reps on one leg, then switch.

Tips

• Master the bilateral chest press and single-leg balance separately before combining them.
• Engage your core intensely to maintain balance and stability.
• Use your standing leg glute and quad to stabilize your lower body.
• The non-pressing hand can assist with balance, but minimize assistance as you improve.
• Start with a more upright body angle until you develop sufficient balance and strength.
