2. Grasp the handles with both hands, lean your shoulders back, and open your chest.
3. Keep your back straight and start with your knees slightly bent.
1. Push your hips back while slowly bending your upper body forward.
2. Keep your back straight and feel the tension in your hamstrings and glutes as you lower yourself.

Breathe in slowly as you go down, and exhale when you return to the starting position while keeping your upper body upright.
