We focus on finding a better squat stance, increasing depth as you are able, understanding how to balance on the prosthesis, and more. I find these things can be improved no matter where your current level of fitness may be. If you’re looking for more intensity, I would treat the first few months as an addition to your typical workout routine, rather than skip the beginning months altogether.
