1. Start by standing straight with a dumbbell in each hand, palms facing inward. Choose a weight that is appropriate for your strength level.
2. Shift your weight onto one leg, with the other leg slightly elevated behind you.
3. Begin to lower your body by bending at the knee and hip of the supporting leg, keeping your back straight and chest up. The non-supporting leg should remain off the ground as you lower down.
4. Squat down as low as you can comfortably go, ideally until the thigh of your working leg is parallel to the floor.
5. Push through the heel of your supporting foot to return to the starting position, all the while keeping the elevated leg off the ground.
6. Complete the desired number of repetitions on one leg before switching to the other leg.
7. Repeat for the desired number of sets.
8. Ensure that you maintain balance and proper form throughout the exercise to prevent injury and target the intended muscle groups effectively.
