For Pelvic Stabilization #16 Single Leg Extension, what is the starting springload and reps?

• A. 1.5-2.5 springs; 10-15 reps
• B. 2-3 springs; 10-15 reps
• C. 1-2 springs; 20-25 reps
• D. 3-4 springs; 8-12 reps

Answer: (A)

In Pelvic Stabilization, the challenge is to recruit the hip stabilizers while keeping the pelvis and spine aligned, so load should be enough to feel the work without pulling the pelvis out of position. For the Single Leg Extension, starting with about 1.5 to 2.5 springs provides a light-to-moderate resistance that lets you control the leg movement and maintain pelvic stability throughout the reps. A rep range of 10–15 supports endurance and consistent technique without fatiguing the stabilizers too soon. Using more springs (3–4) would risk losing pelvic control, while doing too many reps (20–25) could erode form.
