Why Squatting Is So Important

"Just as we should eat the foods our bodies were designed to eat, we should move our bodies the way they were meant to move and impose the stressors they were meant to bear. 

That means squatting, and squatting often. Our hips flex, knees bend, and ankles dorsiflex so that we can rest comfortably in a squat position."


There are many reasons to squat:

  • Squatting is primal
  • Squatting makes you stronger
  • Squatting makes you faster
  • Squatting makes you jump higher
  • Squatting improves bone mineral density
  • Squatting is beneficial for endurance athletes
