Put your hands behind your head and pull the elbows back. Keep them back the entire time to effectively work your upper back muscles. Point your toes out in a plié position and squat. Make sure your knees do not go over your toes and keep the weight in the heels of your feet as much as possible. You will definitely feel this in your inner thighs.
