Surrender Instructions
1. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, hands behind your head, and squat.
2. Kneel first with your left knee and then bring your right knee down to the mat.
3. Lift your left foot up, place it in front of you, and then bring your right foot forward.
4. Push through the heels and return to the squat position.
5. Switch sides and repeat.
Proper Form And Breathing Pattern
Tighten your core, squeeze the glutes, keep your hips back and your chest up. Bring the knees gently to the mat, maintain your spine neutral and relax your head and neck. Exhale as you press through the heels to return to the squat position, and don’t let the knees extend beyond the toes.
