Description

Stand on a raised platform with your feet shoulder-width apart. Slowly bend your knees forward and the ground, while leaning your torso back slightly so that you feel a maximum stretch in your quadriceps. Keep your chest up and your torso engaged throughout the movement. Then return to the starting position in a controlled manner, making sure to maintain balance and stability in your knees.
