Squat hurts your knees? Correct two common squat errors!

Squats are often accompanied by movements in daily life, such as moving things, tying shoelaces, squatting on the toilet, etc., or half-squats that are punished for doing something wrong.

Squats are very helpful for training the strength of the legs and hip muscles. Strengthening the legs and hip muscles helps stabilize the lower body joints.

Squats are a good thing Exercise. But you must pay attention to the posture. If the posture is incorrect, it will cause knee compression or even injury.

Today I will introduce to you the two most important wrong postures that will hurt the knee during squats

1. Knees valgus!

The most common problem, the knees will be inward (X-legs)

The most efficient and safest way is to make "knees and toes in the same line". The suggestion is Knees out!Knees out!(Knee out! Knee out!)

The reason for knee valgus? How to correct it? Please refer to: When squatting, the reason for knee valgus (X-leg) is?

2. Push forward knee (not sitting back (behind (bewing hips)

Adding action It doesn’t matter if the distance between the feet is shoulder-width or larger than the shoulder-width distance. The toes are slightly spread out about 15 degrees. The action is a "sitting (Sit)" action. Try to straighten the upper body as straight as possible, bend your hips (sit backward, imagine sitting on a chair) at the same time, then slowly down, letting your thighs parallel to the ground, and then slowly return to the prepared action. 　　Many beginners will not flex their hips and sit back when squatting, causing excessive knees to "push forward"!

Reminder: When moving, when moving, you do not push your knees forward, but sit backward! Most girls start knee pain after squatting. In addition to not knowing how to rely on their hips to exert force, put the strength on the front of their legs during exercise (placing the strength on the quadriceps, that is, in front of the thighs is not the wrong way, but the pressure on the knees is greater)

At this time, the knee joints will be compressed, which will cause soreness. This focus is very important
