Instructions
1. Place two flat benches parallel to each other, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
2. Stand on the benches with your feet positioned toward the outer edges, toes pointed slightly outward.
3. Hold a dumbbell with both hands in front of you, letting it hang between the benches.
4. With your chest up, back straight, and core engaged, lower into a deep squat by bending your knees and pushing your hips back. Ensure your knees track over your toes and do not collapse inward.
5. Descend until your thighs are parallel to the benches or as low as your mobility allows for a full range of motion.
6. Press through your heels and mid-foot to extend your legs and hips, returning to the starting position.
7. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Ensure that you maintain good form throughout the movement to avoid any potential injuries. It's also advisable to use a weight that is manageable for you to complete the desired sets and reps with proper technique.
