Air Squat Sumo Instructions

  1. Stand with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart, toes pointing outwards.
  2. Place your hands on your hips or extend them straight out in front of you for balance.
  3. Lower your body by bending your knees and pushing your hips back, keeping your chest up and your back straight.
  4. Continue lowering until your thighs are parallel to the ground or as low as you can comfortably go.
  5. Push through your heels to stand back up, extending your hips and knees until you are in a standing position.

Air Squat Sumo Tips

  1. Start with a wide stance, toes pointed outwards, for a sumo squat position.
  2. Keep your back straight and chest up throughout the exercise to engage your quads effectively.
  3. As you lower your body, focus on pushing your knees outwards to activate the inner thigh muscles.
  4. Go as low as you can while maintaining proper form, aiming for your thighs to be parallel to the ground.
  5. Remember to breathe in as you lower down and exhale as you push through your heels to stand back up.
  6. Keep your weight on your heels to prevent your knees from moving too far forward.
  7. To challenge yourself, try adding a pulse at the bottom of the squat before standing back up.
