Squat for One Exercise a Day by Kathryn Alexander personal trainer

Your exercise for today is the squat! Squats are fantastic for everything from getting in the car, to getting off a cushy couch, and you can modify them to work for you.

The goal is 10 squats. 

To do the squat: 

  • Stand with good posture, with your back straight (neutral). 
  • Don’t flex your spine forward or backwards – just keep it straight.
  • Stand with feet flat.
  • Bend at the hips and put your hips behind you, like you are reaching for a chair.
  • At the bottom, keep your whole foot on the ground AND drive your big toes into the ground.
  • Then push the ground away from you, squeeze your glutes, and stand up. 

You did it!
