Begin crouching from the buttocks, pulling the pelvis back. As you move down, take a breath. The weight of the body lies in the middle of the foot, the knees do not go beyond the socks. Squat to parallel the thigh with the floor or slightly lower. Always keep the waist with the deflection, do not lower the body forward. To maximize the load on the buttocks, it is necessary to squat as deeply as possible. For beginners, the advice is: squat until you can keep your lower back in tension and until your heels begin to break away from the floor. Having reached the parallel with the floor, immediately start lifting up. Exhale only when you pass a difficult stretch of squat. At the end of the exercise, the legs can be left slightly bent at the knees and hip joint, which will keep the muscles in tension all the time.
