What does that mean? That means that if you do exercises like squats, just hinging squats where you just squat down to your butt is about the same level as your knee and then come up again quickly. If you do like 12 repetitions and 3 sets of that, that uses the leg muscle, the buttock muscle, the abdominal muscle. Those are big muscles of the body. And also do a hip hinge where you you bend your hip way down low and then come up again. So squat or hip hinge or hip where you just bend your back and then come up.
