How to do the Squat Hold
- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and toes slightly turned out.
- Lower your hips back and down as if sitting into a chair while keeping weight in your heels.
- Lift your chest, keep your back straight, and hold the squat with steady breathing.
Tips
- Work toward thighs parallel to the floor.
- Track knees in line with toes to protect your joints.
Adjustments
- Stay a bit higher if you want a lighter option.
