In the semi-squat training, we will fully activate the quadriceps femoris in the front of the thigh. At this time, squatting on the tibia will produce an outward tension, so it will exert greater pressure on the knee.

Different action patterns stimulate different small muscle groups. When squatting, the hips are higher than the knees, and the training focuses on the quadriceps femoris. If you continue to squat until your hips are lower than your knees, you will also train your biceps femoris and hips.

Some people think that squatting against the wall can reduce the pressure on the knees, but this kind of training will make the back muscles completely unable to participate in sports and increase the pressure on the knees.

If a complete squat will bring more pressure to your knees, it can only be said that you have done the wrong training action, which has caused unnecessary pressure on your knees.

In squat training, people who leave their heels off the ground and focus on their knees and thighs, or who often use semi-squat for training, are under too much pressure on their knees.

We need to slowly squat down to the controllable range of the body through centrifugal contraction, train the control ability of the movement, and avoid squatting against the wall, so that the back chain of the body can also participate in the movement.

When we activate our hips and biceps femoris in squat training, they can help us share the pressure and make our squats safer.
