DEF

Exercice de musculation qui s’exécute en effectuant les mouvements suivants : debout, faites un pas vers l’avant et accroupissez-vous jusqu’à ce que votre genou arrière touche presque le sol et que votre jambe avant soit fléchie à 90 degrés. Relevez-vous et ramenez vos jambes ensemble.

OBS

Cet exercice sollicite les quadriceps et les fessiers. Il peut s’effectuer sans poids, avec des haltères ou avec une barre. La seule différence entre cet exercice et la flexion des jambes avec fente est que, dans la fente avant, les jambes commencent et reviennent ensemble à chaque répétition; dans une flexion des jambes avec fente, les jambes restent en position de fente(une jambe devant l'autre) tout au long de l'exercice.
