Rh See Fig. 33.

The squatting exercise. Settle the body as nearly as possible on the heels as they rise from the floor—the knees well apart. Then rise to position.

Tense your entire body as you slowly descend against an imaginary resisting force. Do the same as you rise. The slower and the greater force exerted the more rapid and complete the development.

Seven times.

Twenty-five times rapidly, without resistance. There is no better exercise to give elasticity to one's step.
