This exercise I'm going to perform is for the quads, which is the front part of your leg, and also the hamstrings, which is the back part of your legs, and also works out your glutes. Now, the stance you should be in, is your feet should be shoulder width apart. If you need to help you with your balance, you can either put your hands in the front, or hands on the side. I like usually putting the hands in the front. Slowly, come down. Push off the heel. Come back up, squeezing your quads and your hamstrings, and continue the same motion for about fifteen to twenty reps. Since you are not doing it with any type of weight, dumbbell, or barbell, you definitely want to keep it high reps, since it's so low on weight, because you're just doing your body weight, so continue this motion again, for about twenty reps of three to four sets, and that's the freestanding squat.
