Part of our lower body strength move is called the Standing Squat.
What you are going to do is stand with your feet, hip-width apart and athletic ready, chest tall, nice and strong, and you are going to slowly drop down, sinking back into your heels, making sure your knees are in line with your toes.
You are going to take it nice and controlled. Not too fast, dropping down and keeping the shoulders up. Good! Squatting low and up.
Now from the side, you can see that I am trying to get down on a 90-degree angle. I line up my toes with my hips, athletic ready, and I squat down, sinking into my heels, coming up nice and slow, holding through that core. Good! Tracking my knees over my toes, chest tall and up.
Okay now, let us try it. You are going to squat. Here we go. Feet apart, hip-width apart, athletic ready, arms up. Okay, ready, squat down. Drop down to your heels, hips back, hips back. Good! Come on up.
You can go at your own pace, you guys! Down and up if you want. That is good, Dylan! Hips back, hips back. That is great! Knees in line with your toes, line it up, line it up. Great!
One more time you guys, and we are going to hold it. You can do this.
You can also hold to the standing squat. Holding it chest tall, arms up. Good! Hips back. Perfect!
This is called the standing squat. Keep going, you guys! Looking good. Good! Track those knees. Great job!
