Instructions

1. Stand up straight with your feet shoulder-width apart. Your arms should be at your sides and your gaze straight ahead.

2. Engage your core muscles by gently pulling your belly button towards your spine, keeping your back straight.

3. Distribute your weight evenly across both feet. You can experiment with slightly varying foot positions, such as closer together or further apart, to find a stance that is comfortable and stable.

4. Keep your shoulders relaxed and drawn back slightly to open up your chest.

5. Hold this position, focusing on maintaining a good posture. Pay attention to your body alignment from your head down to your feet.

6. Breathe normally and maintain the position for a set duration. Start with 30 seconds and increase the time as you become more comfortable with the stance.

7. This stance serves as a good warm-up or cool-down exercise, and it can also be the starting position for various movements, such as squats or lunges.

Remember, the key to this exercise is maintaining proper posture and engaging your muscles without any additional movement. It can help in building a foundation for more complex exercises.
