Start: Start with your feet hip-width apart, toes facing forward.  Hold weights near the outside of your thighs, palms facing each other. Squat low by pushing your hips back and leaning slightly forward with a straight back. Hold your body weight in your heels and keep your calves vertical, not slanted, with knees above the ankles 
 
Technique Tip: Make sure you can wiggle your toes in your shoes. If you can’t, shift your body weight back an inch to reduce the forward pressure in your knees.
