Focus your gaze directly ahead, activate your abdominal muscles, and keep your back straight.
Bend your knee and push your hips back behind you, aiming to sit down on the chair.
Ensure you keep your knee pointing directly ahead.
Do not allow it to drop inwards.
Your back should remain straight with your gaze in front.
