Description

Stand on a step with your feet shoulder-width apart. Hold a dumbbell in one hand with your elbow bent so that it rests on your shoulder. Slowly bend your knees forward and the ground, while leaning your torso back slightly to feel the maximum stretch in your quadriceps. Keep your chest up and your torso tight throughout the descent. Then slowly and carefully return to the starting position, maintaining stability and balance despite the load.
