- Stand with your feet hip-width apart and hold a fixed surface such as a kitchen worktop.
- Bend your knees and push your bottom backwards, as though you were going to sit down.
- Try to keep your knees above your toes.
- Come back up to the start position.
- If you feel steady, perform without holding on.
Try and aim to do 10 supported squats every other day.
