Quadriceps Squats
How
to Do Quadriceps (Front Thigh) Squats
1.
Stand straight with your feet a shoulder width apart. Tighten your abdomen
and look straight ahead. Focus on a point ahead of you and keep focused
throughout the exercise. This help to maintain a straight back.
2.
Bend your legs at the knees, stretch your arms out ahead and slowly lower
yourself into a squatting position. Lower your body to a position where
your thighs are parallel to the floor. Hold for 5 seconds, then return
to the starting position and repeat.
