Bodyweight Squat

Welcome to your Workout of the Week, April 3, 2024!  This month we will focus on squats so get ready to feel the burn!

Kimberly Menzel, Senior Vice President-Area Manager Hospital Administrator will demonstrate the exercises for this month.  Kimberly is an avid walker and walks regularly during her free time.  When she’s not walking, she attends Orange Theory for weekly exercise classes.

Exercise: Bodyweight Squat

How to perform: Stand up tall and place your feet shoulder width apart.  Inhale, bend your knees and push your hips back as if you are sitting in a chair while keeping the stomach sucked in and spine upright.  Lower yourself until your thighs are parallel to the ground or bend your knees at 45 degrees if you need to modify. Exhale, stand up tall and repeat.

Duration: Perform 10 to 12 repetitions with good form.
