How to perform

  1. 1

    Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. This will be your starting position.

  2. 2

    Begin the movement by flexing your knees and hips, sitting back with your hips.

  3. 3

    Continue until you have squatted a portion of the way down, but are above parallel, and quickly reverse the motion until you return to the starting position. Repeat for 5-10 repetitions.

Important tips

  • Drive through your whole foot, not just your toes.

  • Keep your knees tracking over your toes.

  • An honest range of motion beats a heavier load.
