While you’re folding laundry, do squats
- Place your basket of clean clothes on the floor, and instead of bending over to pick up the items to fold, squat down instead.
- Stand with feet hip-width apart and bend the knees until your butt is level with them (but don’t let your knees go past your toes; stay slightly higher if you don’t have the range of motion to go low while maintaining your form).
- And be sure to engage your core as you come back up to stand.
