Target Muscle
Secondary Muscles
Equipment
Extend one leg behind you and place the top of your foot on the bench.
Lower your body by bending the knee of your front leg until your thigh is parallel to the ground, keeping your torso upright and your core engaged.
Push back up to the starting position using the heel of your front foot, ensuring that your front knee is in line with your foot and doesn't go past your toes.
Repeat this motion for the desired number of reps and then switch legs to ensure balanced strength development.
Pro Tip
**Maintain Posture**: Keep your chest up and your spine in a neutral position throughout the exercise. Avoid leaning forward or rounding your back, as this can place undue stress on your lower back. **Controlled Movement**: Lower your body in a slow, controlled manner until your front thigh is almost parallel to the floor. Avoid dropping down quickly or using momentum to push back up, as this can lead to improper form and potential injury. **Engage Your Muscles**: Make sure to engage your glutes and core throughout
