Speed Skater Squat
- Stand tall with your feet together.
- Bend your right knee to 90-degrees, right shin parallel to the floor, and begin squatting down with your left leg.
- Squat down so your right shin and foot touch the ground at the exact same time, right knee just behind your right heel.
- As you lower down, check that your left knee stays in line with your left foot and does not drift inward.
- Pause on the ground momentarily and then squat back up, lifting your right foot and knee off the ground at the same time.
- Repeat for reps and switch sides.
