weighted sissy squat
To perform the weighted sissy squat, follow these steps:
1. Stand upright and hold a weight plate or dumbbell close to your chest. This will be your starting position.
2. Position your feet shoulder-width apart. Point your toes slightly outward.
3. Begin the exercise by bending your knees and slowly lowering your body. As you descend, lean your torso backward to maintain balance. Keep your back straight and your core engaged.
4. Continue lowering yourself until your thighs are almost parallel to the floor. Your knees should be well beyond your toes at the bottom of the movement.
5. Pause for a moment at the bottom of the squat, then push through your heels to return to the starting position.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Remember to keep your movements controlled and steady, and to maintain proper form throughout the exercise. If you're new to this exercise, start with a lighter weight and gradually increase as your strength improves.
