Stay with your body down for 10 seconds.

"Move body down slowly. Stay with your body down for 10 seconds."

Is the sentence with underline grammatically or semantically right? If not, how can I correct this sentence?

I'll really appreciate your help. Thanks.

It's OK.

Remain in the "down" position for 10 seconds (whatever the "down" position is).

I assume you're doing some kind of physical exercise or weight training.
