Hold a weight plate at arm's length overhead, with your arms fully extended. The plate should be directly above your head and your elbows should be locked.
Begin to bend your knees, lowering your body as far as you can while keeping the weight plate overhead. Make sure to keep your back straight and your chest lifted.
Once your thighs are parallel to the ground or as low as you can go, pause for a moment.
Push through your heels to return to a standing position, keeping the weight plate overhead the entire time.
