How to do the Air Squats

1. Stand with feet about shoulder-width apart and toes slightly turned out.
2. Bring your hands behind your head or reach them forward for balance.
3. Sit your hips back and down as if lowering into a chair while keeping your chest lifted.
4. Drive through your heels to stand tall again and keep the rhythm going.

Tips

• Aim to bring your thighs parallel to the floor without letting your heels pop up.
• Track knees in line with toes so the movement feels strong and supported.

Adjustments

• Work within a smaller squat depth if mobility or strength is still building.
