Bodyweight Kneeling Sissy Squat

Kneeling with your hips locked forward, you lean your torso back in a straight line and let your knees bend to lower yourself toward the floor, then pull back up using pure quad strength. It's a brutal quad-isolation move that leaves the hips almost entirely out of the equation.
