It's not the squats but my leg muscles won't allow me to completely squat I've been trying for two months already

Age 70: chronic knee and hip pain, figured there was a knee replacement soon. Started the deep squats -- pain gone in knee and hip in about 3 weeks. Now do 10 - 20 per day and can stay down for about a minute before I feel uncomfortable, also now getting very low where when I started barely to the sitting position. Shows never too late to start. Thank You!

Wow that's great ..thanks for sharing...🎉❤🙏🏽

Thank you for this. I am a 64 year old man, and watched this video in a deep squat !! I started doing it a year or 2 ago. At first I could barely do 20 to 30 seconds, but I persevered. I think my record was 8 mins one time, but I generally just do 2 to 3 mins, 2 0r 3 times a day. I make a point of doing it if I have been sitting for some time. i.e if watching a movie in the house I will do it once or twice during the film .

My trainer said he always knew which people had lived in Asia as squatting was a natural form of movement. Quite true! I lived in Malaysia and squatting is not a problem, even at 81. I perform squats with a Kettlebell, and the exercise is called Goblet squats.

Amazing!

I do European squats 2x a week and Asian squarts 4x a week. I'm now a squat master 3rd degree black belt😊

At 68 years old I’ve largely substituted deep goblet squats superseted with db deadlifts instead of heavy back squats………at my gym I've seen many in my age segment still grinding out heavy back squats and waddling around in a Neanderthal stoop………mobility and joint health is paramount at this stage of life…..

For me squatting is daily activity

I'm 45 & I had gotten lazy for awhile. One day I got down on the floor & couldn't get up. My son had come & help. I felt completely helpless, that's when I started exercising again. That incident was pretty traumatizing to me, very scary

As an indian who lived in middle east whole life this is a very natural thing because we sit on carpets (even though there are couches) because it just feels more spacious and fun, for me personally if i ever for some reason go without sitting on floor my body asks for that stretch that it didnt had throughout the day.

I’m 64 bone on bone inside the left knee been squats the knee is so much better. Doctors wanted me to have surgery. I’m good.

Had knee pain most of my life until I started doing deep squats about 5 years ago. Between sets at the gym, I often take that position for a minute or 2 until I am ready for my next set. I'm in my 70s.

I had chronic back pain and squats, I will say cured that problem, as I have not complained about my back in 4 years. I am 52 years old and had chronic back pain for about 15yrs while in the Army and 8 years after.

Am 71, squat everyday WITH elastic bands. I have arthritis due to aging and from the family history, but doesn't bother me much. Yes squatting is good but it's not the only number I exercise to help aging process. Any exercise will do but depending on each individual with the level they can reach. Swimming is an excellent exercise for seniors tooand other resistance exercises are needed and very important. The elastic bands are not expensive (cheaper than your prescriptions drugs). I woul recommend everyone to use it. I see a huge result after only a few weeks . Squat with bands 👍👍👍the best thing you can do for the body. Try and you know what am talking about

WRONG, squatting IS the number one exercise. Sure, there are many other exercises that are beneficial and you should also do them but NONE of them compare to the squat as this one of the most basic human positions. Before toilets were invented this was the essential position to defecate from.

The bands are great. I had to adjust my workouts for bands but once you figure out the motions and where to hold the band and/or where to anchor it you can replicate any free weight exercise. You can also do more exercises with resistance bands than you can with free weights. Exercise bands are like your own canle machine, but without the joint damage potential. And you can build mass with them just as well as with weights.

@@user-vo2op6iq2z LOL, a person CANNOT "get rid of arthritis" by simply changing their diet as there are more than 150 different types of arthritis with diet only being able to slightly improve symptoms in a very small percentage of people. I don't know what kind of BS you have been reading on the internet but you have a very gross misunderstanding of what the disease actually is.

Starting out- you can sit against a wall and place your hands against the back of your bent knees and continually push them away from your body while in a squat. Get in trouble- you are pretty low and can kick out your feet and slide down the wall to your tush.

I just tried the deep squat exercise. Needed a bit of support upto the third count but I did the remaining eight counts without support. Thank you. ❤

Im 59 and jog also do some other strengthen exercises....i can do deep squats and can stay in that position for a couple of minutes....im amazed at the younger people who can't do a deep squat im talking about people in there 30's and can't walk up five flights of steps no wonder young people are diabetic, high blood pressure, so obese, and take medication for it...on a fast track to heart disease also i try to tell them in a nice way to start doing some form of exercise if all you do is walk do that...can keep obeseity from taking over....i have exercise since 14 years old and know beyond a dout the only way you can stay health as you age is to do some form of exercise on a regular routine for the rest of your life...just preaching...

I’ve had a degenerative knee issue since I was 7. I’m 41 this year and I can still do deep squats but I’m very careful and slow while doing it. I’m trying to keep my knees as long as possible and I think exercising has helped me significantly but I’m not sure for how much longer, I’m hoping I’ll be ok for at least 10 more years 🤞

People in the undeveloped world do it naturally and do it out of necessity not out of undestanding.The well off in these countries use chairs like we do as a form of industrial modern develpoment.However, I agreed with the benefits of deep squats.

Most dangerous excercise for elders is deep squat and climbing stairs with these excercise u will staer pain in ur knees,when i started squat at the age of55 i stared pain in my knees and was not able to walk a kilometr now im 73 with six pack can walk 20 kilometer briskly. 😊start doing leg extension and leg curls and calf raise after about amont add leg press

Thank- u Muscle Wiz. 👍😊

Thank s for sharing

Very helpful.Thank u❤

I think that squats are hard and no fun, but I do them anyway because they produce results that I notice and they do it quickly. Getting out of a chair becomes surprisingly easy and I never thought it was hard but deciding to get up and suddenly being fully upright is a treat.

Iv had issues with my knees for years. I started doing this roughly 2 years ago wow what a difference. It’s so easy and anyone can do it. I also find it interest how many people stare at me when I do it in public, like talking or playing with my kids. It seems like a movement very few people an do

Thanks!

As well as deep squats , I would highly recommend at least one hundred steps in a “duck walk” every day. You will be amazed by the benefits in a very short time.

I’ve decided to watch this video in a deep squat position 👍🏾

Brilliant info🎉🎉🎉🎉

All working out is anti aging

Huh, apparently I don't know squat, at 72 this is rather alarming. All this time I've been doing this to ease my lower back, which it does quite well. Here I thought that the indigenous people of Vietnam just couldn't afford chairs. Shows ya what I know...

Squat is a great leg exercise workout but I have found that overdoing it is not good when ya get older. I've squat heavy for 50+ years. My best squat was 335 lbs at 150 body weight. Feeling it in the hips now so now my leg exercise is on a bike. I'm getting a nicer sweep on my quads than I ever got from squatting.

Excellent. Thank you. If the deep squat protects against arthritis or osteoarthritis, can it help reverse it if it's started or present?

The coach meant squatting parallel to the ground is the least level you SHOULD reach. But maximum benefits of squat is your butt tie to your heels. But if people cannot then the parallel position still beneficial in some ways

Here's a tip. Start by bending your knees...

I'm 72 years old and hold a deep squat for 15 plus minutes every morning .

As I was watching, I was thinking how much squatting hurts, how many young people were used in the video to illustrate squatting and its benefits, and the next video on top of my recommended viewing list which reads "Stop Squatting: Deep Squats are not safe." It was a skeptical video about those who reject the notion of squatting.

@MrHaggyy

6 ай бұрын

It's not about being young or old, but if you used your range of motion in the past few years or not. Loading a deep squat with weight before you can control the weight will lead to injury. Like any other exercise will do. But hip and shoulder mobility can be maintained easily until the age you will never leave a bed again.

In my teens, I could do a deep squat, but that was long ago. In my early 20's, they found bone deformities in my knees. I wonder whether that contributed to my losing the ability to do deep squats.

I have been doing this

Great ! i'm up to 25 "must do" excercises at day

100% facts

Do you have any scientific papers on this subject ? Just point me to a link please. Great video.

I do deep squats in the gym before doing actual squats.

What about if one has ACL issues??

I have Osteoarthritis in both my hip joints and walking is quite uncomfortable. Do you really think that doing the SQUAT exercise will help alleviate my pain levels? Hope you will reply with thanks.

It's odd that I stumbled across this video. I (69 yrs old) just to my better half that I can't stay in a squat position without discomfort in my knees and ankles. Hmmm... I think I'll give it a shot!

I agree with the message, but am confused about the actual exercise. You show some deep squats, but the wall squats are only to 90°. Not a deep squat. What is the actual message?

Great advice but some of the people were not doing anything close to a deep squat.

Squats are insane

Everything tends to go back to the future. E.g. Yoga, Taichi and etc., etc.

Iam 56 and I’m just wondering since I’m not in that great of shape and have weak knees if I start doing squats will this improve my weakness! I just started Pilate classes .Pilates are something I’ve been wanting to do for years but kept putting off .No longer ,I’ve started at first of year and already seeing results.Iam so much happier .Will squats help now or is it too late to help strengthen my knees?

Deep squats are the real deal, unlike quarter squats and parallel to the ground squats. You have to put your ego aside because deep squats require less weight. Learn how to deep squat correctly and you will see greater gains.

I do deep squat first thing in the morning for 2 mins everyday.

How to properly do the squat movement without injury is explained in the book: Becoming a supple leopard by Kelly Starrett
