After all, squatting is just a great exercise, which is very useful not only for the buttocks and legs, but also for many parts of our body. Squatting, you include several groups of joints in active work at the same time. This is the ankle joint, and the knee, and the hip. It also strengthens the knee tendons. So, in order to achieve all this, you need to follow a number of rules.
Squat rules.
Before you start squats, you need to tighten your abdominal muscles. Thus, the muscles form a kind of corset around the waist and fix the spine well.
Do not arch your back or round it. Also try not to slouch. Remember that from the coccyx itself to the back of the head, your back should be straight, that is, a straight line should form.
When squatting, you should make sure that your knees in the lowest position do not go forward, out or in. They must remain above the feet.
Remember school, where we were all taught to keep our heels off the floor when we squatted.
No need to hold your breath while exercising. You should breathe evenly, be sure to calmly and try to do it in time with your movements.
