  2. Soften your knees and push your hips back, lowering the dumbbells close to your legs with your back straight.
  3. Go down until you feel a stretch in the back of your thighs.
  4. Drive your hips forward to stand back up tall.

Beginner tip: Keep the dumbbells close to your legs and your back flat.
