Exercise of the Week: Squats - Da Silva Health and Fitness

Squats

Squats are easy-to-learn exercises that strengthen the lower body, including the quads, hamstrings and gluteal muscles. To perform a squat, stand with your legs about hip-width apart. Slowly bend your knees and rest your weight in your heels as you squat down until your thighs are parallel with the floor. Hold for three seconds and rise back to a standing position. Keep your back straight throughout the exercise. Do three sets of 10 squats two or three times a week. Once you are accustomed to doing squats, you can make your workout more challenging by holding dumbbells as you squat.
