  1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand at your sides.
  2. Keeping your chest up and core engaged, lower your body down by bending at the knees and hips, as if sitting back into a chair.
  3. Continue lowering until your thighs are parallel to the ground, or as low as you can comfortably go.
  4. Pause for a moment at the bottom, then push through your heels to return to the starting position.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
