How do you perform an Air Squat?
- Place your feet about shoulder-width apart, with your toes pointing slightly outward.
- Stand up straight, tighten your abs and glutes, and look straight ahead.
- Bend your knees until your thighs are parallel to the floor.
- Pretend to sit in an imaginary chair.
- Keep your back as vertical as possible.
- Stretch your arms out in front of you. The higher the arms, the more vertical your torso will be.
- Push down on your heels to return to the starting position and tighten your glutes.
Common faults
- Losing the flat or hollow back.
- Weight too much forward so that you end up on your toes.
- Hip doesn’t go low enough.
- Knees bend inward.
- Look at the ground
