SQUAT MOBILITY 🧰 
-
 Squatting involves the coordinated activation of multiple muscle groups and joints, with depth determining which muscles take center stage.

In a deep squat, the full range of motion allows your hips, knees, and ankles to work at their maximum capacity.

This activates the glutes, hamstrings, and adductors more intensely, promoting overall lower-body strength and flexibility.

The hip flexors also play a stabilizing role as you approach the lowest point.

joint mobility are critical for achieving a safe and effective squat depth. Limited ankle dorsiflexion is one of the most common restrictions.

Without adequate ankle mobility, your heels may lift off the ground as you descend, shifting your weight forward and increasing the risk of injury.

Incorporating ankle mobility drills, such as wall ankle stretches or calf raises, can significantly improve your depth over time.

Hip flexibility also plays a vital role.

Tight hip flexors or adductors can restrict your range of motion, leading to compensatory movements like knee valgus (knees caving in).

Stretching routines and hip-focused mobility exercises, like 90/90 stretches or frog stretches, can help address these limitations and allow for deeper squats with proper form.

Hope this helps you get deeper squats

As always,
Peace and movement ✌🏽
