Slow Pulse Squat

Expert Advice

Keep the weight in your heels and maintain a slow, controlled tempo to increase time under tension for the leg muscles.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Stand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, toes slightly turned out.
  2. Lower into a squat position, keeping your chest up and knees tracking over toes.
  3. Once at the bottom of the squat, pulse up and down slightly for a count of three.
  4. Return to the starting position and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
