Start with laundry basket in front of washing machine. Legs are shoulder width apart. Watch your posture when you squat. Put all of your weight into your heels, as if you were sitting in a chair. Make sure your knees do not go past your ankles as you squat down to pick up a piece of laundry. As you come up squeeze your glutes tightly as you drop your item into the washing machine. Do not lock your knees when you come up. Continue until you have run out of clothes or have done at least 2 sets of 12.
Variation: The pulse. While down in the squatting position, stop and do short pulses in this position at least 12 times. Stand right back up and continue with another set of 12 full laundry leg squats.
Variation: The pause. Hold the squatting position for 30 seconds before coming back up for another set of 12 full laundry leg squats.
