Steps
- 1 Stand with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart, toes pointed out at about a 45-degree angle. Keep your chest up and shoulders back.
- 2 Engage your core and lower your hips down into a sumo squat, keeping your knees tracking over your toes. Descend until your thighs are parallel to the floor or as low as comfortable.
- 3 While remaining in the low squat position, slide your feet together until they are hip-width apart. Maintain a low squat throughout this movement.
- 4 From this narrow squat position, drive through your heels to stand back up, extending your hips and knees.
- 5 Once standing, step or slide your feet back out to the wide sumo squat starting position. This completes one repetition.
