Description

Stand with your heels close together and raised by weights (or other objects), feet pointing slightly outward. Slowly and carefully lower yourself by bending your knees deeply, bringing them forward significantly. Continue lowering until you reach maximum range of motion, almost in a squat position with your buttocks close to your heels, while keeping your back straight and your core engaged. Then rise smoothly and in a controlled manner back to the starting position.
