How to do a proper Squat

How to do a proper squat

Squats work the quads, hamstrings, and gluts all at the same time

Stand feet shoulder width apart with shoulders stacked over hips weight in your heels

bend your knees and lower as if you were going to sit in a chair

keep knees over your ankles and behind your toes

Ouch to your knees if they go past your toes

lower to 90 degrees and then stand up

practice with a real chair to master the move but do not sit in the chair

also you can try a wall squat to master the motion of going down and back

lower to 90 degrees on the wall with your toes out past your knees

The Proper Squat

How to do the proper Lunge

Lunges work all major muscles of the lower body

Take a big step forward front knee is behind the front toe

Bend front knee to aprox 90 degrees

Keep weight on the back toe and drop your back knee almost to the floor

Back knee should be under the hips which are under the shoulders

Roll shoulders so weight is shifted back and your abs are engaged

This is one of the most improperly performed exercise.  Do it right so you do not hurt your knees
