  3. Inhale as you slowly bend at your knees and hips, lowering your torso into a deep squat while keeping your arms outstretched.

  4. Pause briefly at the bottom of the movement while maintaining an upright posture.

  5. Exhale and drive firmly through your heels to return to the starting position.
