Air Squats to Warm up the Lower Body

  1. Stand with your legs shoulder-width apart and arms at your side
  2. Slowly lower your glutes (buttocks) toward the ground as you lift your arms in front of you to shoulder level – aim to keep your knees in line with your feet
  3. As you squat, keep a neutral spine and lift your chest – it may help to focus on a spot in front of you
  4. Once your quadriceps (thighs) are level with the floor, reverse the motion and return to a starting position
  5. Repeat 10 to 15 times
