How to properly squat
Before you start this challengethough, you need to make sure you are performing squats with the correcttechnique. Bad form can lead to injuries and other conditions. So avoid these 4squat mistakes as recommended by Warrior Grrrls:
Mistake 1: Curling or arched back
A curled back is the biggestmistake and a dangerous one. You want to keep a flat back that is straightnot arched or curved. A flat back keeps the weight in your legs rather than inyour spine. A curled back puts pressure on the spinal vertebrates, which couldlead to a slipped disk or a knee injury.
Mistake 2: Squats that areshallow
Maximum depth leads to maximumgains when squatting. So you should always aim to squat as low as possible. Try tosquat below knee height.
Mistake 3: Buckling of the knees
It is very easy to overlook theposition of your knees especially when squatting. Your knees sometimes do what they want, like buckling inwards. This pressures the smaller muscles aroundyour knees instead of your larger leg muscles. So you need to always rememberto push your knees outwards when squatting.
Mistake 4: Weight on toes
All your weight needs to be inyour heels not in your toes. Don’t be tempted to lean forwards onto your toesas this will lead to back pain. Weight on your heals pressures the largermuscles of the leg, which is what you want!
