How to do it
Adjust the suspension trainer to mid length. Stand facing the anchor, feet shoulder-width apart, holding the handles in front of your chest with your elbows bent and the straps taut.
Push your hips back and bend your knees as if sitting down onto a chair. Let your arms straighten as you lower, keeping the straps taut for support.
Lower until your thighs are about parallel to the floor, with your chest up and your heels on the floor.
Drive through your heels to stand back up, bending your elbows to bring the handles back to your chest. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Form tips
Use the straps for balance, not to pull yourself up: your legs do the work.
Keep your knees in line with your toes and your weight on your heels.
Exhale as you stand up and inhale as you lower.
