Instructions:

  • 1Stand upright with one foot slightly forward, the other foot resting on a bench behind you
  • 2Begin to lower your body by flexing the knee and hip of your front leg until the knee of your rear leg almost touches the floor
  • 3Push up through the heel of the front foot to the start position
  • 4Repeat the movement with the other leg

Tips:

  • Keep your chest up and your torso straight during the exercise
  • Use your back foot for balance - not for pushing
  • Push through your heel instead of your toes on your front foot
  • Avoid bending forward or backwards too much - this can place strain on your lower back
