- Find a step or a bench that, when you place your foot squarely on it, your knee is at a 90-degree angle or larger.
- Step up with the right foot, then the left, bringing both feet completely onto the bench.
- To return to the starting position, lead with the right foot to step down to the floor, then the left, until ending with both feet on the ground.
- Complete 12 reps, and repeat on the left side. Repeat for a total of three sets.
If this is too easy, you can perform this exercise with dumbbells.
