Most of todays workout was single leg stuff. Single leg stuff is great because it recruits so many secondary muscles for stabilization. It's also great because you dont need as much weight to get a great workout. I also believe it is safer in many movements because proper form is so critical just to do the exercise. With 2 leg moves, sometimes a strong guy can power through something with improper form and possibly hurt himself. With single leg stuff, if you dont have the form, chances are the weight isn't going anywhere and nobody gets hurt. That's not always true but for the most part, single leg stuff feels safer and really beneficial.
