Step 1: Sit on a chair or a surface that keeps your knees and hips bent at a 90-degree angle. Step 2: Reach your arms straight in front of you and slowly begin standing, taking two to three seconds to get up. Step 3: Move slowly back into a sitting position; avoid "plopping" down, which can place strain on your spine. Step 4: This counts as one repetition. Try to perform three sets of 15 repetitions, making adjustments as needed. Chair squats (also known as sit-stands) can be challenging at first, but your body will adjust with practice.
