Cossack Squat

Start with a wide stance. Shift your weight to one side, squatting deep on that leg while keeping the opposite leg straight with the toes pointing upward. Return to centre and repeat on the other side. Work to increase depth progressively while maintaining an upright torso and a flat foot on the squatting leg.
