Method 1: Stand, with your back leaning against a flat wall.
Plant your feet firmly on the ground and place it about shoulder-width apart.

Method 2: Still leaning your back against the wall, slowly move your feet forward and lower your upper body.

Method 3: Lower yourself until you get to a chair-like position.
At this point, maintain that position for up to 30-45 seconds.

MISTAKES TO AVOID

1: Do not forget to keep your feet shoulder-width apart.

2: Avoid moving your back off the wall during the program.
Make sure your entire back leans on the wall during the work-out.

3: Your knee should maintain a straight line with your feet.
