Chair squats
Video Transcript
This exercise is simple chair squat, fantastic for toning, firming, and strengthening our bottom and thighs. We start by sitting on the edge of a chair, feet hip width apart. Take a nice deep breath in; stand straight up. Keep those shoulders back, tummy tight, as we lower ourselves down, touching the chair.
1. Start by standing in front of a chair or box.
2. Proceed to sit back with your hips as if you are going to sit in the chair.
3. Stay in control during the movement and go at your own pace.
