Bodyweight Squat to Side Leg

1. Starting Position:

   • Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.

   • Keep your toes pointing slightly outward.

   • Engage your core and keep your chest up.

2. Squatting:

   • Begin the movement by bending your knees and pushing your hips back as if you are sitting in a chair.

   • Lower your body until your thighs are at least parallel to the ground. Ensure your knees stay over your toes and do not extend past them.

   • Hold this position for a moment.

3. Returning to Standing:

   • Push through your heels to stand back up, returning to the starting position.

   • Bring your feet together as you rise.

4. Side Leg Raise:

   • As you come back to the standing position, shift your weight to your right leg.

   • Lift your left leg out to the side with a straight knee.

   • Hold this position for a moment, then lower your leg back to the starting position.

5. Repeat:

   • Perform the squat again, and this time shift your weight to your left leg and raise your right leg to the side.

   • Continue this alternating pattern for your desired number of repetitions.

Tips:

• Keep your back straight and avoid rounding your shoulders.

• Focus on controlled movements to maintain balance.

• Start with 10-15 repetitions per side, adjusting as needed based on your fitness level.
