SQUAT SQUAT SQUAT BABY

I wanted to take a little time and talk about squatting before I leave you at peace for the weekend 🍑

So lets go back to basics, shall we? Body weight squats it is then. 

HOW LOW DO YOU SQUAT?

Do you really go as low as you can? As they should be easy right. I know that people who start training don`t really know how to do a proper squat so they just simply squat, but feeling your muscles and engaging the right ones while you do it is something different, that`s when you can say "I can Squat"

First off all, you do need to get used to the exercise as doing a low squat needs flexibility in your hip joints and ankles as well as balance between your back, abdominals and leg muscles. It takes practice to get better and perfect it. 

LOW/ FULL SQUAT has more effective benefits comparing to original/ partial [ what most of the people do ] exercise:

🍑 It produces great overall muscle development - by hitting the glutes, hamstrings and quads!

Have a look at how I do them, usually in my rest period as I`m just one active gym bunny who can`t stay still for long. I did as low as I can go pulsating squats this time and really felt the contact in my glute muscles, they were just pulsating and on fire which resulted with a pumped up feeling. Isn`t that what we want though 💁

20 reps x 5 sets with little rest 

If you are training smart, you don`t need to go too hard. Although they say 'hard work pays off', I believe that being smart does as well.

Be smart, be proud, stay active and I`ll see you next week with fresh ideas and experiences,

Have a smashing weekend. ✌
