Grasp a dumbbell in each hand and let them hang at your side. Movement/Execution: 1. Look forward, inhale, arch your back slightly and descend slowly. 2. Squat until your thighs are parallel with the floor and then forcefully return to the start position by straightening your legs. 3. Exhale as you finish the movement and then repeat.
