Stand with your feet hip-width apart.
Engage your core and keep your chest lifted and back straight.
Begin by lowering your body as if you were going to sit back into a chair, bending at the knees and hips. Make sure your knees do not track over your toes.
Lower down until your thighs are about parallel to the ground, or as low as you can go without compromising your form or experiencing discomfort.
Push through your heels to rise back up to the starting position, extending your knees and hips.
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Ensure to control your movement throughout the exercise, keep a steady pace, and breathe consistently. Use your arms for balance as needed. This exercise is a bodyweight movement that targets the leg muscles, primarily the quadriceps, and is suitable for building strength and endurance in the lower body.
