      Mehdi, the guy who wrote the Stronglifts 5x5 wiki and made the SL 5x5 app, recommends ten minutes a daybin deep squatting position, too. I haven't picked up this habit yet, but I noticed that doing the squat heavy SL 5x5 program has taught my body to handle daily squatting way better. I can sit in a deep squat position for way longer than I used to. (BTW, I'm not advertising for SL 5x5, I'm just very enthusiastic about it, and I'm learning more about being fit in general.)

    I think it's easier to just use the squat for different chores. I brush the dog in a squat. He loves being face to face. I pull weeds in the garden in a squat and if I have any little repetitive task I'll squat to do it. I don't think it needs to be so structured.

    I'm a few days into the 30/30 squat challenge. I started out with a near perfect squat in my opinion: ass to grass, hitting 30 minutes daily pretty easily, feet straight, i think my resting posture could be better but its not bad. I'm 20 for the record, so although I complain about tightness and injuries, it might not be to the same degree you guys have. I went ahead and began adding the squat 2.0 to my regiment and thats more of a challenge but i feel great and a lot of relief after.
    Side note I'll have to check out your hanging challenge video. I started the hanging challenge in conjunction and its not bad but im hopeful that I'll progress well in that. Its more of a problem area: rotator cuff injury on my right side, lack of cartilage, weak scapula, I'm constantly cracking my all of my joints (back, knees, ankles, neck, shoulders, you name it) and grip strength could be better.

    As someone who did has done the resting squat for years and built up to 30 minutes in one go and usually 10 minute intervals when I do it, I’ve found a lot of the anecdotal benefits to be true for me
    I recently injured my lower back which made this position impossible but now that the back is healing I can do it for long periods and have since got more mobile post injury by adding them into my daily life

    if you struggle with mobility Id suggest working on strength of the tibia (so it pulls ur ankle forward) and hip compression, because the squat is not just about dropping down, think of it as pull the ground up - try doing a squat with your nose to a wall, that will actively work the three main points - ankle, hips, straight back

  • @BrandonSL500

    I feel that Abhi already had shortened hamstrings and possibly hip flexors as well. Squatting over weeks probably made these areas worse which over stretched his lower back and caused his injury during deadlifts. If this is the case, stretching and lengthening the hamstrings and hip flexors should help. You would feel the effects almost immediately.

  • @randolphpinkle4482

    I'm sure there are great benefits from doing the full squat for 30 minutes per day, but I've found a slightly different routine that is much shorter and has made my legs bullet proof.
    I do 2 minutes in the seiza position with my arms extended back on to the floor. Then 2 minutes in the full squat position. Done. I've been doing this for a good year now. Short and potent. I could do much longer, but I can't be bothered.

  • @AppendixDaphnis
    @AppendixDaphnis 9 месяцев назад +1

    There’s a big consideration, 5min in the very first day it’s super aggressive 😅, even if you can handle it. It is recommended to start with just a few seconds and collet the 30mins during the day. Even tho, I also think 30min a day it’s a lot, there are big chances you'll find aches if you are an average person. The correct position u mention it’s super important too; toes pointing to wide means you have tight hips, and hanging in a squat for long period of times with bad toes position it’s 100% harmful, and it is believed it’s gonna change magically, but that’s not happening until you are aware of your position.

  • @mateusz3162

    Abhi hurt himself cause he kept doing the squats on that couch! He did not have enough support on stable ground. He should show this to his chiropractor and get that adjusted. Also, I wouldn't use a phone while doing the squate as it makes you look down versus focus on having your spine alinged and it might be better to avoid the EMFs while trying to do a healing practice. Just be.

    Too much of volume doesn't work as well for everyday BUT every second for medium lentgh holds should be good way. Just remember you wont be in this position in western world, not our culture BUT we have be able to do ATG squat with no excessive butt wink which is a feat of overall strenght of lower body.
    Add atg split squats & front squats & sumo squats with DB/KB/BB also better way for longer holds is sitting against a wall backwards maintaining chinese lifting atg squat position in symetry.

    10mins is excessive. Better to start with just 1 min a day, then add a minute per month until by years end(YEAR) at 12 mins. Have to take into account that Westerners are strictly sedentary and can't squat at all.

    • @shane.melaugh
      @shane.melaugh  Год назад +3

      You are not wrong about most people can't squat at all. Also you right: Start slow. Do what you can. Break it up into 1minute at a time, but it's worth pushing a little harder for a short period of time. (like 30 days)
      You will make fairly quick flexibility gains with a regular practice. I would say most people can get up to 10minutes within 1 to 2 months.

      Surely we are monkeys. Plus, every railway station in India has groups of men chatting while squatting on the platform. It’s normal for many people. And it doesn’t take long to accustomise yourself to it. I did…about 30 years ago after visiting India and wondering if I could do as those people did. I never experienced injury. I’m 74 now and even after fifty years road running I have no knee problems. I can’t run now as I got atrial fibrillation. Research increasingly shows older people who carry on pushing themselves at long distance exercise stand a greater chance of getting AF. Better as the years progress to run less but mix exercise up with swimming, walking and cycling, for example. You can’t undo AF easily. Over 27 years I had nine cardioversions but carried on running because nobody told me not to. I was still “five miles good therefore ten miles must be twice as good”. Yoga and flexi exercises are great too.
