Instructions
1. Stand with your feet together, maintaining good posture with your shoulders back and chin up.
2. Take a step backward with one foot, placing it behind you while keeping your back straight.
3. Lower your hips toward the ground by bending both knees, creating two 90-degree angles; the back knee should hover just above the ground.
4. Ensure that your front knee is directly above your ankle and not pushed out too far.
5. Push through the heel of your front foot to return to the starting position.
6. Alternate legs, or complete all repetitions on one side before switching to the other side.
7. Perform the desired number of repetitions and sets.
Keep your core engaged during the exercise for balance and control, and perform the movement in a controlled manner. Additionally, make sure not to let your front knee collapse inward; it should point in the same direction as your toes throughout the movement.
