I would proceed with extreme caution if attempting this exercise. The girl in the video is obvious extremely fit, but anyone who has ANY knee problems, is overweight or just out of shape, or has poor balance should probably avoid trying to do this exercise in my opinion. The knee is a FRAGILE joint.
Thank you! Zuzana I am rehabilitating from a MS attack, and am now doing this every day I can only go down 45deg and have to hold a door frame with my opposite hand the MS got my balance as well, , Im on the mend now this was very helpful to me Thanks
for beginners this is NOT a good maneuver to attempt, this takes a long time to execute correctly and safely. also some ankles physiologically will not allow that angle. however, if you wish to be able to perform this exercise as she has done, start squats with the support of a 'smith machine' and very light, or no weights.
False. Go as low as possible. Use boxes, stairs, bricks, or any other stable surface to slowly train your self to go lower and lower by tapping said surface with your bum and coming back up (rather than relaxing onto it).
iMagnus is false and giving out bad advice. If you go to far down, you risk and acl tear. ACL tears are very hard to recover from and career ending for a professional athlete. If you take fitness seriously, 90 degrees is enough. Going 10-15 degrees further is reasonably safe when your in great shape and flexible.
Using boxes to get further past that is asking for an acl tear or sprain. At that point, your legs are done with. 90 degrees = good, a little past = ok, a lot past = DANGEROUS
What are you talking about? I worked up to 355 lbs in the full squat today, no problems. The danger in squats is not in how low you go, it's in not having proper alignment. Even then, it's more likely to cause patellar problems than an ACL injury. Most ACL injuries are non-contact injuries involving deceleration with improper biomechanics. The ACL actually undergoes the most stress during the early phase of knee flexion in the squat, so squat depth is not an issue in regard to ACL injury.
Okay, I am now seriously impressed, I can't even do that once. That takes good strength, great flexablity and great stability. The improvements, visually, have been fantastic, but to see this kind of physical display shows the impressive physique is way more then skin deep. Great work :)
cool exercise if done correctly, but be very careful for your knees, it puts enormous strain on the tissue, muscles and joint.i ripped my meniscus more than once,not a good feeling, so i felt like commenting on this one, you are obviously well trained and capable of doing these type of exercises, i noticed that you got rid of your navel piercing, look way better, and lastly, so nice to see that you are a real person without the stuck up attitude so many have these days
Hi Zuzana, I fully retract my original comment. I've watched more of your videos and you're absolutely right, you're filming a real workout, and it's more inspiring to watch you than to watch people wearing anti-shine powder who never break a sweat on TV. Keep up the great work, and I was glad to read you took up pole dancing again. It's a beautiful art to watch.
I've been telling everyone about these videos, and the reason is, because she is really working out. This is professional enough keep doing what you are doing. BTW how long does it take to get that deep in this type of squat, it would be nice to touch on that in on of your videos? Thanks!
Four pack for the win! I prefer over a six pack on ladies. This is a wicked body weight exercise. I can't do one on my left leg and can only do a wobbly one on my right leg. Building it up though.
wow good job...i was actually able to do three on my left leg so i'm surprised! i'll definitely keep working on getting better....ur a great motivation!
think the same, anywhow the strenght, stability and balance she's got in her legs is impressive, SWEET!!! I couldn't go that down while trying this up :(
Hey Zuzana your website is great only thing i don't understand is why the cam keeps pointing at your rear can't keep my focus when it keeps doing that 5* great tips Zuzana
WoW, I will be trying this as well but my knees are not the greatest so I will have to take it easy... This looks super super hard.. by the way I did one of your workouts at the gym this evening... It felt soo good and I love variety and you give me that on so many levels..
Doesn't that hurt your knees? I was always told you shouldn't let your knees go past your toes when you do a squat. How often would you recommend doing this?
lol ur such a cutie! and u have an AMAZING body! I've been working really hard for almost a month now...if i get into half the shape u are by summer I will be sooo happy! Ive almost reached my goal, just one month left :D I love ur videos theyr so inspirational :p thanks!

The secret to success is to do a little EVERY DAY.
Going halfway down for a week or so is fine, but test yourself to go full squat. 3 per leg EACH DAY is plenty to start.
This woman did/showed a great example...great form, great for lower back problems.
This seems to be a common Russian exercise. I know it from Kung Fu. GREAT body strength and balance. DON'T believe the 'stressed knee' B.S.

No. Play sports where you have to lunge a lot instead, like badminton or squash.
Nielsio 2 years ago 2
I'm 187 and anywhere between 85 and 90 depending on how much I eat, and I do them just fine.
Just watch your form and take it slowly.
We do these for warm-ups at my grappling club (bjj/sambo/sub wrestling) and they're great.
They do require some flexibility and balance though, so don't be discouraged if you don't nail'em right from the start.
Also, don't do'em cold.

Its becase your bring your knee in front of your toes when you come down.
You have to keep your knees behind your front toes at all time. Watch the video carefully and the placement of the knee in relation to the toes.
