The Asian squat is not recommended for those with hypertension, arthritis, inner ear problems or unusually large breasts. LOL!

it's also retarded. If you're tired just fucken sit.

Lately I've realized that children can do the asian squat naturally without any problems, and some of them are non-asians.

Lmfao, I didn't know there was something difficult in this, I've always been able to do this and I'm not even asian.

@danaseilhan

maybe but my point is that not only "asians" can do this squat people in africa, the middle east, and asia all can do it so it's not fair to call it the asian squat.

@CrabKing05 On the other hand it's funny how several Asian cultures seem to have gotten a handle on various aspects of body science, even if they use symbolic language to explain it (i.e., acupuncture or Ayurveda). I'm not saying they *always* get the right answer or solve the problem but they tend to tackle the stuff not requiring heroics or major surgery rather well. So the adjective is still somewhat appropriate.

@Ksharp1fan where have you been? No one says "oriental" anymore.
