 All right y'all today I want to talk about two different types of squats shallow squats and deep squats. What is better? Well, most people will say deep squats because deep squats mean you're cool and that you're really pushing yourself and that you're loading yourself and Oftentimes that is the case right that that demonstrates that you're really trying very hard, but also other times It's totally unnecessary So if you're not doing powerlifting where you need to squat to a certain amount of depth Or if you're not doing Olympic weightlifting where you need to catch something add a certain amount of depth Then that depth doesn't matter. I can still load the same pattern the same muscles the same force generating capacities by squatting a little bit shallower and Arguably it might actually take me a little bit further. Let's take a basketball player for example someone who's really tall someone who has really long legs They have a serious leverage disadvantage when they're squatting because of those legs. They're so long, right? So they're gonna have a lot of trouble squatting deep But do they have to When you jump how low do you go? I would say right about here, and then you just jump back up You don't jump down here, and then you don't squat down there and then jump all the way up, right? It's totally unnecessary so Way your decisions, right? You don't always have to squat deep sometimes shallow squats can get you what you want
