Can’t Squat Deeply? Here’s How to Fix It...

Спорт

PDF pose chart here: www.yogabody.com/squat-youtube/
Do you have trouble with a deep butt-to-heels squat? Maybe your heels pop up or you roll backwards? Or maybe you get stuck halfway down? If so, this video is for you.
Squatting is one of the most basic human movements, but because of chairs, seated toilets, and modern shoes, most of us have lost the ability to do a full squat. The good news is that you can get it back with some simple targeted stretches.
Most people who have trouble with their squat need to work on either their hip flexion or the dorsiflexion of their ankles, or both. In this video, we’ll show you some simple self-tests to work out which function you need to focus on improving, followed by simple but powerful stretches to help you do just that.

DISCLAIMER - If you’re a weightlifter or a professional athlete, this video probably isn’t for you. It focuses on helping people who have lost range of motion, so they can move in a more functional way. Please do not use this video to diagnose or treat a severe injury. If you’re suffering from pain when you squat, see a doctor.
ANATOMY
Your hip joints are the primary movers of the body, designed to take massive amounts of force, torque, and load. They are supported by at least two dozen muscles and some of the strongest connective tissues in the body. However, to perform a full squat, there are two primary ranges we need to look at - full hip flexion (knees to chest) and full ankle dorsiflexion (toes towards your knees).
The first pose we’ll learn in this video works on stretching your posterior chain muscles, to improve mobility in your hips. These include your glutes, biceps femoris and hamstrings. The second and third pose are variations of the same stretch and tackle your calf muscles (specifically your gastrocnemius and soleus) to help improve mobility in your ankles.
BEST PRACTICES
These poses should always be done after a workout, never before. This is stretching with a capital S, meaning it’s very intense and is designed to affect change in your soft tissues.
POSES WE'LL LEARN
1) Blaster Pose
2) Straight Leg Runner’s Lunge
3) Bent Leg Runner’s Lunge

    Hello sir. My hip flexors are tight which has caused weak glutes & tight hamstrings. How can I include these stretches in my yoga practice to increase my hip mobility & ankle mobility, so as to work on my glutes better? I am confused since you said that these stretches should be done after & not before any exercises. Please help. 🙏

    Good information. I already do some of the exercises, but want to do some of the others you mention here. Other than some stiffness, I have no problem getting down into a full squat, but I have a problem standing back up, because of weakness in my quads. I have no problem doing the regular half squat, but getting up from a full squat is hard and painful. I have to do them next to a table and use my arms to get from the full squat to a half squat. Any thoughts there? Also, I don’t see the pdf link.

    Lucas, thank you for a very informative, well-presented method to train for squatting. I'll be 85 at the end of December 2022, I had my left hip replaced (a piece of cake) about 4 years ago. Along came Covid, and I've become a couch potato. I've had enough of that!! I'm going to start your exercises for squatting and pelvic floor awareness. I used to jog 45 miles a week and worked out at the gym. I know I'll never be 35 again, but I really do feel that that is my age. I want to be the best 85-year-old I can be. I'll update you. Thanks!!

    I have never, I mean, ever, been able to squat with my heels on the ground. I didn’t think that it was possible, and so I was a little bit annoyed with this video that insisted that, with the right stretches, indeed, I could. Well, about a month later, I am squatting with both heels on the ground. It is amazing. It really does work. I am definitely going to tune in to more of his videos.

    My knees hurt at first, did the stretching, and could squat all way down no knee pain. My right hip flexor has been so tight. This was awesome. I can't wait for 30 days to see how much better i am. At 60, I want to strengthen my core. It's not botox or surgery, but it's security. Good choice for me. Thanks for the help along the way.

    Hi Lucas, really enjoying your videos. With the deep squat it's my knees that hurt when I'm in that position. Is there something that I can do to fix this? I've Had knee issues for a while and I don't want to have surgery.

    LOVED this video. The hip exercise was very difficult but the dorsiflexion felt soooo good. I can now do the position for the squat but only if I’m holding on to a counter or something. Otherwise I fall backwards. Are these stretches suppose to help fix that or is that a different issue? Thanks! So glad I found this channel

    That's weak hip flexors

    From what I understand from this and other videos... falling backwards is because the hip is not tilted and the back is pushing out.

    You have explained it beautifully. It has helped me to understand scientically about hip flexor and ankle muscles. Please share how much importance calf muscles have, when it comes to body strength?

    Delighted that you found the explanation helpful! Calf muscles are the unsung heroes of body strength-they play a crucial role in ankle mobility, stability, and power. Think of them as the powerhouse supporting your every step. So, give those calves some love, and your body will thank you with improved strength and flexibility! -YB Team

    Oh my god this is amazing, I usually fall backwards when I get near the bottom of my body weight squat, this fixed me straight after😮 how often should I do these stretches? Daily or every few days? Thanks so much

    Hi Lucas, thank you for this beautiful video, it is very helpful. I like how you explain in such a nice detail! I have two specific questions for you about the hip and the pelvis. During Malasana, the hips do a external rotation, right? And more specifically, should the pelvis do an anterior or posterior pelvic tilt? I appreciate your help.🙂

    Hi. I really love your videos. It has helped me a lot. Quick question, I want to work with my squat. Which of your programs can I purchase?

    Amazing!!!! I've been working towards full depth squat for a while with lots of struggle and stagnation. One session in and I'm bum to floor babyyyy! I'd been skeptical of certain "yoga" approaches, but going through this experience opened me up (literally and physically). Thank you thank you thank you!
