Squat

How to do it

1. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. You can place your hands behind your head, extend them in front of you, or place them on your hips. Keep your head up and your back straight. This will be your starting position.
2. Begin the movement by bending at the knees and hips, lowering your body as if you are sitting back into a chair. Keep your back straight, chest up, and knees tracking over your toes. Inhale as you lower yourself.
3. Continue down until your thighs are at least parallel to the floor.
4. As you exhale, push through your heels to return to the starting position, straightening your legs and hips.
5. Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
