Which stance is directly before 'Single leg' in progression?

1. Seated

2. Standing feet parallel

3. Split stance

4. Four-point quadruped

The correct answer is: Split stance

In the progression of stances, Single leg is preceded by Split stance. Split stance is a type of stance where one leg is positioned forward and the other is positioned back, often used in exercises like lunge variations. This allows for a focus on balance and stability on one side of the body before progressing to single leg exercises. Seated, Standing feet parallel, and Four-point quadruped are all stances that come before Split stance in the progression. Seated is a position where the person is seated on a chair or bench, Standing feet parallel is a stance where both feet are parallel and shoulder width apart, and Four-point quadruped is a position where the person is on the ground on hands and knees. Therefore, C is the correct answer as it directly precedes Single leg in the progression.
