- Stand in a split stance with feet close together (about two feet apart, one foot forward, one foot back).
- Hold weights in each hand and bend the knees, taking the weight towards the floor. This is the start of the movement.
- Keeping the abs engaged and the shoulders back, push into the front heel and lift up about halfway.
- Lower back down and repeat for 1-3 sets of 10-16 reps.
Form pointers:
- This is a small movement. Start at the bottom and go about halfway up rather than standing all the way up.
- Keep the torso bent forward throughout the movement, but make sure the back is flat and the abs are engaged.
- Keep the front foot flat and stay on the toes of the back foot.
