ShareThe squat. If you train at a gym, I’m sure you’ve witnessed plenty of unusual variations and scary attempts at a squat. Sheesh.
Yesterday, I took part in bodyweight squat challenge (I can’t say no to a competition…). The challenge was to do as many squats as possible in 4 minutes. Sounds easy, right? Warning: don’t blow it and go to failure in the first round. Go 2-3 reps short of failure and then take a quick rest and repeat for 4 minutes. Fun times!
The squat has been crowned the king of all exercises by many strength and conditioning coaches because it utilizes so many muscles and gives you an incredible bang for your buck.
The interesting thing is, depending on your foot position you can hit different muscle groups. For example, doing a narrow stance squat will absolutely hammer your quads. You’ll feel the burn!
Some people don’t like the exercise at ALL because they never officially learned how to do it correctly. You need to remember to push your hips back as if you were going to sit in a chair. This way, squatting will strengthens your knees instead of putting them in an unstable position.
