Bodyweight squats are a simple exercise that involves lowering your body by bending your knees while keeping your feet flat on the ground. This movement primarily targets the muscles in your legs, including the quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes. It can be performed anywhere, making it a convenient option for strength training. To perform a bodyweight squat, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Lower your body as if sitting back into a chair, keeping your chest up and back straight. Aim to lower until your thighs are parallel to the ground, then push through your heels to return to the starting position.
