Movement · Wake Up Your Hips
Open Doorway Deep Squat
Move 3 of 5
Starting position
Stand facing a doorway, holding the secure frame or handles at about chest height.
Hold 30–45 sec
Breath — Slow, relaxed breathing
How to do it
Drop your hips back and sink into your lowest comfortable squat — chest upright, heels flat on the floor. Settle in and breathe, letting the hips open.
Keep in mind
Use the frame to pull your chest upright, so your lower back doesn’t round at the bottom.
Every move: lightly lift your pelvic floor — a gentle lift, never a clench — and breathe slow and full (hold the stretches for about 5 easy breaths, at least 30 seconds). New to the lift? →
