Answer 1

Here’s the evaluation of the options for proper form during an air squat:

1. Knees should come together.
   Incorrect form
   (Knees should track over the toes, not come together.)

2. Feet shoulder width apart.
   Correct form
   (Feet should be about shoulder-width apart.)

3. Hips push back.
   Correct form
   (Hips should push back as you squat down.)

4. Toes should go past your toes.
   Incorrect form
   (Ideally, the knees should not go significantly past the toes to prevent strain.)

5. Knees should be in line with your second toe.
   Correct form
   (Knees should track in line with the toes, particularly the second toe.)

So the final assessment is:

• Knees should come together: Incorrect form
• Feet shoulder width apart: Correct form
• Hips push back: Correct form
• Toes should go past your toes: Incorrect form
• Knees should be in line with your second toe: Correct form
