DEMOS:

Squats

• Plant your feet flat on the ground, about shoulder-width apart.
• Point your feet slightly outward, not straight ahead.
• Never let your knees extend beyond your toes.
• Look straight ahead. Bend at your knees as if you were going to sit back in a chair, keeping your heels on the floor.
• Pull in your abs, and keep your lower back in a near neutral position (a slightly arched back might be unavoidable).
• Tighten your whole body when you perform the squat.
• Lower yourself. In a controlled manner slowly lower yourself down and back so that your upper legs are nearly parallel with the floor. Extend your arms for balance.
• Keep the upper body tight at all times.

Sumo Squats

• Stand with your feet wider than hip-width apart, toes slightly turned out, holding a medicine ball in front of your chest.
• Squat down as low as you can, keeping your heels on the ground and your back straight.
• Press back up to standing. That's one rep.

Pistol Squat

• Stand holding your arms straight out in front of your body at shoulder level, parallel to the floor.
• Raise your right leg off the floor and hold it there.
• Flex your right ankle so that your toes are higher than your heel.
• Your right leg should be straight.
• Brace your core.
• Push your hips back and lower your body as far as you can.
• As you lower your body, raise your right leg so that it doesn’t touch the floor.
• Pause, then push your body back to the starting position.
• Keep your torso as upright as possible.

 Split Squat

• Stand with dumbbells grasped to sides facing away from bench.
• Extend leg back and place top of foot on bench.
• Squat down by flexing knee and hip of front leg until knee of rear leg is almost in contact with floor.
• Return to original standing position by extending hip and knee of forward leg and repeat. Continue with opposite leg.

Squat Jumps

• Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, arms hanging at your sides.
• Squat down until your knees are bent about 90 degrees.
•  Immediately swing your arms overhead and jump upward as high as you can.
• As you land, gently bend your knees and sink back down into the squat position.
