1. Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart, arms at your sides or clasped in front of you.
2. Begin by performing a bodyweight squat. Keeping your back straight, bend at the knees and hips as if you're sitting back in a chair. Keep your chest up and your core engaged.
3. Lower yourself until your thighs are at least parallel to the floor, making sure your knees do not go beyond your toes.
4. Push through your heels to rise back up to the starting position, straightening your legs fully.
5. As you reach the top of the squat, transfer your weight onto your left leg while raising your right leg in front of you without bending the knee. Try to raise it as high as comfortably possible while keeping your balance.
6. Lower your right leg back to the ground and immediately move into the next squat.
7. After completing the desired number of reps on the right leg, switch to the left leg and repeat the same sequence.
8. Maintain control throughout the exercise and perform smooth transitions between the squat and the leg raise.
9. Repeat for the recommended number of sets, ensuring to rest adequately between each set to maintain proper form.
