Bodyweight Squats

November is finally here! It’s that time of year where the leaves are changing color and we gear up for Thanksgiving, one of the biggest holidays for food and fun!

But before you get stuffed, we’re going to get sweaty and burn some calories. This month’s workout will focus on squats, which are great exercises to strengthen your lower body. These exercises will be the best (turkey) leg day ever!

Today we will build the foundation of the variations of squats by learning the bodyweight squat. Stand up tall and move your feet shoulder width apart with your toes slightly pointed outwards. Push your hips back as if you are sitting in a chair and then stand up as all as you can. Perform 10 repetitions.
