Скачать или смотреть Can't get up from Cossack Squats?

THREE strategies (+1 bonus 👇) to gain strength for full Cossack squats without using a band or TRX to assist

1️⃣ Yoga block method
if you feel like you're going to fall backwards at the bottom of the Cossack squat, this method is for you
use yoga block(s) as a target set at a height that you can lower down into and stand up from the Cossack squat
lower the height of your yoga block target as your strength improves (suggest lowering the height of your target every 3-4 weeks)
continue working on ankle, knee, and hip mobility while training with this method for best results

2️⃣ Counterbalance method
if feel comfortable at the bottom of thr Cossack squat and your belly button is stacked over your mid-foot, this method is for you
use a medium weight (7.5-15 lbs)
at the bottom of the Cossack squat, straightening your arms so that the weight is in front of your toes will move your center of gravity forward, making it easier to engage your glutes and stand up from the bottom of your Cossack squat

3️⃣ Eccentric method
this method works well for everyone
use bodyweight (and a yoga block target if desired)
you'll only be working on the lowering part (concentric) of the Cossack squat -- we gain A LOT of strength simply by resisting gravity
lower into your Cossack squat FOR A COUNT OF FIVE SECONDS; hold the lowest part of your Cossack squat FOR FIVE SECONDS; stand back up by any method you choose (I.e. tall knee to stand)
