Description

Steps:
• Begin by standing tall with your feet shoulder-width apart and pointing straight ahead, grab a pair of dumbbells and hold the dumbbells down at your sides.
• Then take a wide step forward with your right leg. Engage your abdominal muscles, straighten your back and look straight ahead.
• Maintain this position as you lower your hips toward the floor by bending your legs to 90°. Continue down until your left knee nears the floor and curl your arms up towards your shoulders contracting your biceps.
• Push your body back up through your front heel and step your front leg back to the starting position. Switch and repeat the moves on the left leg (that’s one repetition). Complete the set repetitions by alternating between right and left leg.

Useful Tips:
• Keep your chest up, back straight and look ahead.
• Avoid leaning your body forward or backward.
• Do not let either heel turn inward. Keep feet in line with the legs.
• Your knees shouldn’t go pass your toes.
• Keep your elbows close to your sides.
• The back heel should always be lifted slightly.

You should feel your:
• Glutes, hamstrings, quads, biceps and calves.
