When performing squats, proper technique is crucial to avoid injury and maximize effectiveness. For high squats, focus on keeping your chest up and core engaged to maintain an upright posture. Keep your feet shoulder-width apart and ensure your knees track over your toes. Aim to descend until your thighs are parallel to the ground, which engages your quadriceps effectively.
For low squats, flexibility and mobility are key. Ensure your hips descend below parallel, which helps to engage your glutes and hamstrings more deeply. Keep your heels flat on the ground and avoid rounding your lower back by maintaining a neutral spine. Regularly incorporate stretching and mobility exercises to improve your squat depth and form.
