Keeping your back straight, at right-angles to the floor, bend knees and allow your hands to slide down your thighs until they reach your knees. (Keep back straight!)

Hold your knees for a count of 5, then slowly return to start position.

Repeat 10-20 times.

Stand with feet slightly apart.

Stretch your arms straight out ahead of you.

Slowly bend your knees, until your thighs are roughly parallel with the floor.

Slowly raise yourself back to the starting position

The slower you do this, the better.

Start with 10 real slow ones.

But please don't strain yourself. Go at your own pace.
After-exercise Stretching

To avoid bulky muscles, always stretch the area you have exercised, afterwards

Example

Sit on the floor with legs apart and stretched out in front of you

Reach upwards with both arms

Then reach forwards and try to clasp your right ankle. As you do so, push your upper body towards the floor

Hold the position for a count of 20

Repeat with left ankle
