How to do Squats the Right Way!
May 23, 2011- Squats help firm your touché, your hips and upper rear thighs.
You will feel the squats at first, so you will want to start with a few, and then increase them as you continue. You will always want to feel some response from your body, or you are not doing enough, or the right way.
1.) Stand with feet hip distance apart with your toes, knees and hips in a straight line.
2.) Lift up your arms straight in front of you and do not bend your arms. Point your palms downwards and move your hands hooking them together, with one hand over the other with your thumbs intertwined.
3.) Now, Concentrate on your belly button and put it towards your spine. This will naturally tighten your butt muscles! Remember to keep your shoulders straight and pulled back!
4.) Keep your feet flat on the floor and lift your toes upwards and start going down like your are going to sit in a chair and slowly lower your body while keeping your toes up and your arms out and your knees in line with your toes! It takes concentration at first and you will feel it, but its worth it!
5.) Go down until you are at a 90 degree angle in alignment with your knees. Keep your toes up! You will feel like your butt is sticking out and it is! This is okay and the right position to be in. Don’t forget to pull your belly button towards your spine. Look at your toes and make sure that your knees are BEHIND your toes.
6.) Now start to stand up keeping your toes up and your weight on your heels.
7.) Keep your knees slightly bent at you stand, do not let your knees go straight.
8.) Repeat the steps 10 times to start out and don’t push yourself.
9.) Rest for 30 to 60 seconds, and repeat 10 times again!
