I think imbalances are fairly normal - I’m currently battling ITband issues so I know your pain!
If you’re at the gym already then super setting some of these things is pretty easy to get more bang for your buck in a session. But for the single leg weighted stuff getting quality movements is worth the time investment it might take -
I’m not sure what your point is? My running coach knows what machines I’m using because they are either with me or know the gym I will be training in.
The question from @inchpincher was whether bw and 8x reps was too high/unrealistic

If anything I would say that is light! When running you will put 2-3x your load through your legs.
I'd also say not to get discouraged, the advice is correct but just like anything you can build up to it. Have you tried working through what 7, 8, 9, rpe feels like? The good thing about single leg is you can go pretty heavy as you have another leg to spot you!
I'd also say that heavy is better than high reps, so trying to get to 5 x 3 and then 3 x 5 reps at bodyweight with good form might be a more realistic near term goal -

That’s great work and good that you have a system which works for you on a physical and practical level. It means that should you enjoy yourself a little and add some holiday weight or whatever you have a clear path to losing it. That I think is often half the battle - where to start and will it work.
I will jump on the scales tomorrow but I imagine I’ve added 3kg over the holiday just by roughly calculating calories!

I don’t know how to get that code working!
