Quickly bring your feet back towards your hands, returning to the squat position.

Stand up straight again, pushing through your heels and extending your hips and knees, completing one squat thrust. Repeat this sequence for the desired number of repetitions.

Pro Tip

Controlled Movement: Avoid rushing the movements. Each step of the Squat Thrust should be performed in a controlled manner. Rushing can lead to sloppy form, which not only reduces the effectiveness of the exercise but also increases risk of injury. Full Range of Motion: Make sure to perform the exercise through its full range of motion. When you squat, go as low as your flexibility allows, ideally until your thighs are parallel to the floor. When you kick back into the plank, extend your legs fully. Cutting these movements short can limit the benefits of the exercise. Keep the Core Engaged: Throughout the exercise, keep your core muscles engaged. This
