Work your way up gradually to the modified single leg squat. Move one leg slightly forward and find your comfort zone.

Gina Amin on Instagram: "HOW TO SUMO SQUAT! 💪🏼🏋🏻‍♀️ SAVE IT

Tips: 
✅ Stance Matters: Start with a wide stance, toes pointing outwards at about 45-degree angles.

✅ Keep It Vertical: Unlike traditional squats, don’t push your hips back. Keep your torso as upright as possible.

✅ Drop Low: Lower your body by bending your knees, keeping them aligned with your toes. Aim to get your thighs parallel to the ground.

✅ Power Up: Engage your glutes and core as you push through your heels to return to the starting position.

Remember, it’s all about the control and keeping that form on point! 👆🏼" Wide Leg Squats, How To Do A Sumo Squat, Proper Sumo Squat Form, Sumo Squats With Dumbbell, Db Sumo Squat, Sumo Squat Form, Sumo Squats For Glutes, Glute Workout Routine, Squats Workout
