7 Stretches To Improve Your Squat

Updated: Feb 3, 2021



Do you struggle to keep your back straight when squatting? Find your knees collapse inwards? Does your back hurt or feel tight?


These are common issues I see with new clients during our first few sessions; in which Inassess movement analysis here at our personal training studio in Sheffield.


There are seven essential exercises I prescribe daily for 4 weeks to help the squat feel more comfortable and become more effective for the glutes, quads and hams.


If you’re having similar issue give these a try...


1. Glute Pretzel Hug


2. Kneeling Groin Stretch



3. Sit & Reach (try with bands)



4. Elevated Foot Lunge



5. Knees Spread Bum Back



6. Front Split Position



7. Half Pigeon



Commit to these stretches every day and I guarantee you’ll see massive improvements not only in your squats position but subsequently your numbers 🏋🏻‍♂️


Good luck 💪🏼


Ryan
