Instructions

Steps : 1.) To begin this exercise; start off by taking two flat benches and positioning them shoulder length apart and standing on top of them with a weighted plate attached to your torso right above the opening between both benches. 2.) Then bend at your knees keeping a straight posture with your back straight and chest out continuing down until your upper legs and knees form a 90-degree angle and the weight plate falling in between both of the benches. Hold for a few seconds. 3.) Use your lower legs as well as your heels to push yourself back up. 4.) Return back to the starting position. 5.) Repeat this exercise for as many repetitions as needed
