How to do it

1. Stand a few feet in front of a bench with your back to the bench.
2. Extend your left leg back and place the top of your foot on the bench.
3. Lower your body into a squat by bending your right knee, keeping your torso upright.
4. Push through your right heel to return to the starting position, and repeat the movement.

Form tips

• Focus on keeping your torso upright and avoid leaning forward to ensure proper form.
• Use a mirror or ask for feedback to ensure your knee stays aligned with your foot and doesn’t cave inward.
• Keep your movements smooth and controlled, ensuring you lower and lift yourself with even tempo.
