Benefits of Squatting

Can you squat comfortably?
Do you avoid squatting unless you have to?

You might be thinking, Why should I even think about squatting?  It's not something I ever do.

Yet as a child, you probably squatted without difficulty if you played marbles or chalked a hopscotch court on the sidewalk, looked at bugs in the grass, or petted a friendly cat.

As you matured, you likely spent less and less time on or near the floor.  You might have been told that squatting with your knees apart and your bottom close to the floor was unladylike or inappropriate.

But squatting is a natural sitting (and resting) position with benefits.

Squatting helps you by...

- engaging groups of muscles, not just one muscle
- helping your body move with greater coordination
- improving joint flexibility that supports a greater range of motion
