Tom Merrick | SQUAT DEEPER WARM UP👇 @BodyweightWarrior | Uploaded October 2023 | Updated October 2024, 19 minutes ago.
Ankle flexibility tends to be the most common restriction and best place to start. The ability to dorsiflex and shift the knee over the toes greatly reduces the loading and flexibility requirement at the hips to perform a deep squat.
Try this as a warm up for your session:
A1. Fisherman’s Calf Stretch - 2x60s
A2. Squat Calf Raise - 2x10r
The key to both of these is understanding how to use the front of the shin to contract and pull the knee forward, allowing more range of motion.
Make sure you pair this with using the range through squatting or lunges to maximise results.
