Deep Squat Hold

by Jace

The bottom of a squat is a position most adults stop visiting — holding it asks hips, knees and ankles for their range all at once.

How to do it

  1. Stand with feet a little wider than the hips, toes turned slightly out.
  2. Sit down as low as you comfortably go, heels staying on the ground.
  3. Hold a door frame or chair if you need the balance — that is not cheating.
  4. Rest the elbows inside the knees, chest tall, and breathe through the hold.
