  2. 2Tighten your stomach muscles and keep your back perfectly flat. Bend forward at your hips to lower the weights toward the ground.
  3. 3Keep lowering the weights until you feel a good stretch in the back of your legs. Keep a tiny bend in your knees the whole time.
  4. 4Stop for a second at the bottom. Then, use the muscles in your legs and bottom to pull your body back up to standing.
