One simple trick can help ☝🏽
When you squat or crouch down, pay attention, what joint do you bend first? For many people, it’s the knees 🦵🏽
This is one of the main reasons why crouching can be so uncomfortable and why it can can feel difficult or awkward 👀
I see this SO often. Which is interesting because most people use their hips first when they sit in a chair. But without the chair, the knees bend first 🤔
Trying 8-10 repetitions of these squat with a press out can be helpful so your body gets used to moving in this way ☝🏽
Every other day can be a great habit to start with for most people. If things painful for you, try using a chair first. Sit down in the chair while pressing the object out in front ➡️
Whether you have knee arthritis, back pain, hip arthritis or simply just difficulty crouching down- this tip can be incredibly helpful ✅
