What episode is this, or rather which date? I can't access youtube.

Did he say single-leg squats or single-leg situps? He talked about single-leg situps pretty often

Single-leg squats aren't that difficult to learn from a strength standpoint. The limiting factor is more often ankle mobility or mobility in other joints.

He said situps.

 

[EnergeticLeo]

He said situps.

Yes he did, but in the context of the discussion, which was about leg strength, I think it's more reasonable to say he meant single-leg squats.
Single-leg sit-ups don't really exhibit leg strength.
