B-stance exercises like kickstand deadlifts or glute bridges put most of the weight into one foot, so they are an intimidating way to train single-leg strength.
If you think about how you move in everyday life, lots of it is on one leg—whether you realize it or not. Jogging to make your bus, stepping into your car, or putting on your pants all require single-leg strength and stability. But when you’re at the gym, so many exercises have you working bilaterally. There’s nothing wrong with these moves, but they might not be working your muscles as functionally as they could be. That’s where B-stance exercises come in.
“I like that I can use a heavier load than I could if I was just doing a single-leg exercise,” Larson says. Also, if you have tight hips, this shift in position can help open up your range of motion in the joint, according to Savage. “It’s a really good exercise for hip mobility and to fire off the stabilizers that help to support the joint, whether it be ankle, knee, or hip,” he adds.
