Overview
The single-arm dumbbell overhead squat is an exercise that targets the quads. To do this exercise, you will need a dumbbell and a sturdy surface to hold onto for balance. Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and the dumbbell in your right hand. Hold the dumbbell overhead with your arm extended. Bend your knees and lower your body until your thighs are parallel to the ground. Keep your chest up and your core engaged. Pause for a moment at the bottom, then push through your heels to return to the starting position. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions, then switch sides.
