Developing strength in multiple planes is important for improving the transfer of strength to sport-specific movements and to improve durability by preparing the tissue to produce and accept force in these patterns.
The 1-Arm DB Lateral Squat is an example of an accessory single-leg strength exercise that emphasizes a lateral push.

Two quick coaching cues:
✅ When you hit the “bottom” position, all your weight should be centered over your stance leg, so your nose down through your sternum should be centered over the foot.
✅ Actively push your hips away from the ground coming out of the bottom (e.g. don’t lift with your upper body).
Typically performed for 3 sets of 8-10 reps.
