I Know Squat - Run DMT

For this week’s edition of 5 Minutes for Fitness, I offer you another one of my favorite strengthening exercises: Squats! Squats are great for the gluts, quads and hamstrings.

With your legs shoulder distance apart, sit an invisible chair. Dig your heels into the floor to tighten your gluts as your squat. Remember to not let your knees bend over your toes. But don’t take my word for it! Here’s a video to show you proper form.
