How to do it
The bodyweight squat works the thighs and glutes, with no equipment.
Standing, feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly turned out, arms in front of you for balance.
Lower by pushing your hips back and bending your knees, until your thighs are at least parallel to the floor, then rise back up.
Heels stay on the floor, back straight and knees follow the direction of the feet.
