When we are doing strength training or fat reduction training, we will be very familiar with the squat action, because this action has a great effect and intensity on the muscles of the whole body, especially the leg muscles.
When we are training in meditation, the technical difficulty of this movement is very high, so we often make mistakes when doing squats. Many novices don't know what to do when they first start strength training.
However, this action is not as easy to imitate as bench press and bending. There are too many invisible details when doing squats. Beginners must take their time when learning this movement.
Step one, squat with your bare hands. Many people don't squat at the beginning of exercise, thinking that when we squat, there will be hundreds of muscles in our body coordinating movement at the same time, so many people may be very uncomfortable, and this action is completely different from the squat in our life, so many people will make mistakes.
When many novices squat for the first time, they only exercise the knee joint but not the hip joint, so there will be an action close to kneeling, and the hip joint will not move with the squat, and the upper body will not bend.
This action is ugly, but many beginners do it. When we do squats, we must move our hips and knees at the same time. We can try to sit back, put a bench in the seat and sit on the stool.
At this time, many people will habitually bend over and squat, allowing themselves to complete one and a half squats with their bare hands, and at this time, their knees should try not to exceed their toes.
Step two, squat down with your bare hands. After learning to squat with bare hands, you can basically understand how to exercise your hip and knee joints at the same time. We must exercise our hip and knee joints at the same time when we squat.
After mastering the skilled semi-squat, you can try to make your knees slightly higher than your toes and your hips slightly lower than your knees, so that you can complete a squat.
Compared with semi-squatting, squatting is undoubtedly more difficult, but when squatting, our physical exercise effect is better and the stimulation to hips and legs is better.
The third step is to squat with weight. After completing these three steps, even if we have learned to squat, the only thing we need to pay attention to is not to carry out heavy training when squatting, because our body can bear limited weight, and we must ensure that our body remains stable and not injured when training.
There are many devices for weight-bearing squats, such as barbells, dumbbells or fixed devices. When doing squats, we need to learn many skills, but for beginners, just remember to stop as soon as you feel uncomfortable.
