1. Hold the dumbbells in both hands, place the dumbbells in front of your chest, draw your hands inward, and relax your shoulder blades. Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your toes pointing forward (or slightly out). The key should be to keep your knees and toes in the same direction when squatting.

2. Tuck your hips and keep your thighs parallel to the ground or as parallel to the ground as possible according to your flexibility and flexibility. The body's center of gravity is centered. Keep your chest up, your head up, your abs in, and take a deep breath.

3. Feel the hip joints move backward (sit back and down), while keeping the chest and quilt straight during the process. Squat down and lean forward slightly.

Finally, keep your torso stable and push your feet down hard. With your center on the middle of the soles of your feet, extend your knees and hips and squat straight up. Return to starting action.
