Instructions

  • Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, toes forward and your arms at your side. 
  • Bend your knees (like you are sitting in a chair) while keeping your back straight and arms in front of you for balance, until thighs are almost parallel with the floor, making sure your knees do not bend forward of your ankles. 
  • Return to starting position. Repeat.

    Tip

    Don't let your knees pass in front of your toes as you are descending. Keep your heels flat on the floor at all times. If heels come off the ground during exercise, take wider stance.

    DISCLAIMER: Your doctor is often in the best position to evaluate whether any particular diet or exercise program is best for you. Advance consultation with your doctor is particularly important if you are under eighteen (18) years old, pregnant, nursing, or have health problems.
