]]>Start by standing straight, with your feet hip-width apart. Your head and shoulders should be facing forward.
Next, start lowering down and back, as if there was an imaginary chair right behind you. The whole point is to keep the top part of your body straight and to face forward.
Don’t move your knees to the front, instead try keeping them in the same position as before doing the squat.
Make sure that the weight is focused on your heels, and you can even lift the toes from the ground in the beginning. Another thing you have to be careful about is that your knees don’t move inwards.

]]>One of the biggest myths you’ll ever hear is that if you lift weights you will look bulky. If you want to gain muscle, you need to stimulate the muscles with weights.
If you want to build muscles you need to eat. Continuous dieting is not the best idea. You want to eat right and eat enough to feed and fuel the muscles.
Regular workouts are the only way that you will achieve toned muscles. Do not skip days, and try to exercise five times a week.
Doing fewer reps with more weight will challenge the muscles, which means they will work harder. If you do more reps with a lower weight, your body will get used to it and the muscles will remain in the same size as before.
