Explanation:
Body weight squats are to be performed through a full range of motion. One legged squats should be performed through same range as the two legged form.
Place a weight (or something manageable like a water jug) on the ground on the same side of the body as the squat is being performed (we will say for this example that the left leg is out in front and the squat is being performed on the right leg). Squat down and pick it up using your right hand, stand up with the weight still in your right hand, squat down and place the weight back and the ground on the right side. That is one.
Place the weight on the ground on the right side (for a squat being performed on the right leg). Squat down and pick up the weight with your right hand, stand up, move the weight to your left hand, squat down and place the weight on the ground on your left side, stand up, repeat to return the weight to the right side. That is one.
