How to perform

Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. This will be your starting position.

Begin the movement by flexing your knees and hips, sitting back with your hips.

Continue until you have squatted a portion of the way down, but are above parallel, and quickly reverse the motion until you return to the starting position. Repeat for 5-10 repetitions.
