Pro Tip

Correct Form: Start by sitting on the edge of the chair with your hands next to your hips. Move your hips forward, off the chair, and bend your elbows to lower your body towards the floor. Your elbows should be bent at a 90-degree angle. Keep your back close to the chair to avoid straining your shoulders, which is a common mistake. Engage your Core: It's essential to keep your core engaged throughout the exercise to maintain balance and stability. This also helps to protect your lower back.
