Squats not only exercise your muscles, but are also good for your joints. When squatting, the two largest joints of the human body - the knee and hip joints will be folded to the maximum extent, bearing almost no body weight, while the muscles in other parts of the body can be activated, which can effectively prevent and treat symptoms such as varicose veins in the lower limbs and calf cramps. People who sit for long periods of time are more likely to suffer from muscle strain and bone hyperplasia, while squatting can activate blood circulation and provide adequate nutrition for muscles and bones. In addition, many women, especially those after childbirth, tend to have loose pelvic floor muscles, and squatting training can effectively improve this situation. Although squatting may seem simple, there are certain things to pay attention to when doing it, otherwise it will backfire. "When squatting, it is best not to squat too deep, that is, the angle of the knee joint should not be less than 90 degrees, otherwise it is easy to feel dizzy when standing up." When practicing, there are mainly the following methods:

Squatting with the help of objects, squatting on tiptoes, squatting with heels, and squatting with bow and arrow.

Squatting exercises do have their own requirements. If you do it the wrong way, it may cause wear and tear on the knee and hip joints. You must pay attention to the method when exercising. Taking time to squat every day will produce unexpected exercise results. It should be noted that due to changes in body position when squatting, symptoms such as dizziness may occur.
