How to Do the Frankenstein squat

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold the barbell in front of your body with straight arms. Keeping your back straight, lower your body by bending at the knees and hips, as if sitting back into a chair. Continue lowering until your thighs are parallel to the ground, or as low as you can comfortably go. Pause for a moment, then push through your heels to return to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
