Postpartum Return to Run Readiness Screen: Single Leg Squat
0The Single Leg Squat is a key test in the Postpartum Return to Run Readiness Screen.
This movement assesses lower body strength, control, and pelvic stability—essential for running postpartum.
Perform the squat on one leg and monitor for any pelvic pressure, leakage, pain, or imbalance.
Struggling with control or noticing symptoms?
It may be a sign to focus on strength and stability before progressing to higher-impact activities.
