How to do Sumo Squats?
Widen your feet beyond hip-width apart. Position your feet so that your toes are slightly pointed outward.
Lower into a squat position by pushing your hips back as if you are sitting in a chair. Keep your spine neutral and your abdominal muscles engaged throughout the movement. Squat down until your thighs are parallel to the floor. If you are unable to maintain proper form, you can perform a shorter squat.
After squatting, push yourself back up to the starting position using the soles of your feet.
To increase the difficulty, you can use weights.
