How to do Narrow Squats

Video Transcript

"MADISON CHASE: Now, we've covered the basic squat. Now, we're going to focus on the basic squat by changing the positions of our feet. We're going to focus on different muscle groups. This exercise actually focuses more on your inner thigh as well. So this is your vastus medialis, okay? So, we're going to start the same exercise. Remember, your tummy is tucked in, squeeze those glutes in, and you're going to act like you're sitting back in a chair. Let your bottom barely touch and then come back up. So again, make sure that you're close enough so that your bottom barely touches and that you feel comfortable and safe, and letting your bottom just barely touch the surface, okay? So we're going to sit back, weight on your heels. You should be able to wiggle those toes when your bottom's touching that surface. Tummy in and squeeze the glutes as you come on top. You want to make sure that you're covering your surface and you're touching the surface just barely, and focusing on your abdominals and lifting those glutes up on the top. And use your hands for balancing purposes only, not to basically cheat. So there's no cheating here on the long lean leg machine workout."
