Instructions
Stand facing away from a low box or elevated platform.
Place one foot on the box behind you, ensuring that you're balanced and comfortable with the position.
Keep your torso upright and engage your core.
Lower your hips by bending your front knee and dropping your back knee towards the floor. Ensure your front knee does not extend past your toes.
Lower down until your front thigh is almost parallel to the ground, keeping your weight mainly on the heel of your front foot.
Push through the heel of your front foot to extend your front knee and hip back up to the starting position.
Complete the desired number of repetitions for one leg before switching to the other leg.
Make sure to maintain proper form throughout the exercise, and adjust the difficulty by using additional weights such as dumbbells if necessary.
Remember to start with a weight that allows you to perform the exercise with proper form. As you progress, you can gradually increase the weight to continue challenging your muscles.
