The basis of any squat is great form. The following tips will help you perfect your form:

Face forward with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Place your hands on your hips or stretch them out in front of you for balance.
Bending at the knees, lower yourself as if you're about to sit in an imaginary chair, being mindful not to round your back or lean your chest onto your thighs.
The aim is to get your thighs as parallel to the floor as possible.
Push back into starting position, driving your weight into your heels.

Box Jumps

Box jumps might look fairly easy, but they take a little work to get right. To get your form right, you'll need to do the following:

Find an elevated surface or sturdy box and stand with your feet about shoulder-width apart.
Bend your knees as if to squat, then drive through your heels to propel yourself onto the box. You can swing your arms to gain more momentum.
Land on the box or raised surface in a squat and straighten yourself into full standing position. Drive your hips forward once you straighten up.
Step back onto the floor to get back into starting position.

As if lunges weren't hard enough, someone had to come up with a heart rate-raising variation that's guaranteed to wake any bum up. To get this move down, you'll have to do the following:

Starting off with soft knees and your feet together, jump and land in a lunge with your right leg forward.
Push off with both feet and jump, switching legs so that you land with your left leg forward in the lunge this time.
Jump your legs together to complete one rep.
