So geht’s

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and slightly in front of you, then unhook the bar from the rack by straightening your torso and legs.
2. Lower your body into a squat by bending at the knees and pushing your hips back, keeping your chest up and your back straight, until your thighs are parallel to the floor.
3. Pause at the bottom of the squat for a moment, ensuring your knees are in line with your feet and not extending past your toes.
4. Push through your heels to stand back up to the starting position, straightening your legs and hips, while keeping your back straight and your chest up. Repeat the exercise for the desired number of reps.
