Instructions:
- 1Stand with your feet hip-width apart holding a dumbbell at your chest using both hands.
- 2Move one foot backward and place it on a bench or box. The majority of your weight should be on your front foot.
- 3Lower your body until your rear knee nearly touches the floor and your front thigh is parallel to the floor.
- 4Push yourself back up to the starting position by driving through the heel of your front foot.
Tips:
- Keep your back straight and core engaged throughout the exercise.
- Aim to lower your body straight down, rather than tipping forward.
- Don't let your front knee go past your toe as you lower your body.
- Exhale as you push up and inhale as you lower down.
