How to do it

  1. Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and holding a dumbbell in each hand.
  2. Place one foot slightly behind the other, with the heel of your back foot elevated on a step or weight plate.
  3. From this starting position, bend at the hips and knees to lower the dumbbells towards the ground, keeping your back straight and your core engaged.
  4. Once the dumbbells are below your knees, drive through your heels to stand back up to the starting position.
