Between Instagram booty routines and 30-day squat challenges, it’s never been more popular to work your hind-quarters.
Indeed, training squats is a must whether you’re trying to build a bigger caboose, lose weight, or get an overall stronger body.
Why Squats are Vital for your Health…
The very first exercise I teach new clients is the bodyweight squat. With just a few reps, I can pick out a few very important things:
- General mobility of the ankles, knees, and hips
- Balance
- Leg strength
- Breathing habits
- Core engagement
… and much more, especially when we start to add a bit of weight.
Because most of us sit on our butts all day, it’s vital that we work them properly in the gym.
This means a few things:
- Full range of motion
- Proper (safe) form
- Challenging weights or variations
It’s rare to see all 3 at once!
