How to do it
- Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.
- Take a step forward with one foot and place it about two feet in front of the other foot.
- Lower your body by bending your knees and hips, keeping your back straight.
- Continue lowering until your front thigh is parallel to the ground, and your back knee is hovering just above the ground.
- Pause for a moment, then push through your front heel to return to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch legs and repeat.
