These are not lunges. They are split-squats. A little easier, you're not stepping into (forward) or out of (back) from stand-still, unless back foot is elevated. He's working all core doing these unilateral exercises. Strong dude from an elite athlete.

Big difference when you are in control of the weights. You feel muscles you didn’t know you had. Nice training!

I can do those split squats but I outweigh Steph by 50 lbs and can only do 3 sets of 10 or 4 sets of 8 at that weight - crazy strong considering the pacing he pushes when he's off the ball. The man probably had a 2 hour shout around right after this. What an underrated athlete.

@@KJK51192 My foot does not slide around like it normally does, I have great traction to the gym floor and even outside. I have two pairs one for indoor and outdoor. What has helped is also taking 20LB ankle weights as well and doing some leg extensions (sitting on something with your feet not touching the floor) real slow, foam roll for a bit and finish off with a wall squat for a few mins. Pretty much it for me and I'm good to go. Also have always had a problem with my right ankle so I usually do some band stretches and also stand on a yoga box (or elevated surface) and let my foot kind of hang and stretch it with the weight. That stretch also helps the groins.

I don’t think they can’t afford one. Keeping balance is heavily emphasised in those exercises so I believe that’s their purpose. And barbell even though calf raise is hard, it’s not risky since you can’t do it with a really heavy weight.

he's an athlete not a body builder, when you're an athlete you cannot be afraid or shy away from exercises that require large amounts of stability, you WANT that. If he's doing split squats with 225, I think its safe to assume it's a fairly moderate weight for him not anything insanely challenging.

His squat is impressive not expecting that but he is a NBA superstar I’m sure all nba player got crazy squats numbers
