ExerciseThe right technique to squat
The squat is a very basic bodyweight exercise which is great when it comes to hitting most of the muscle groups in your lower body. It targets the quadriceps (the front part of your thigh), glutes, hamstrings, adductors, hip flexors and calves”. Depending on the type of squats (yes, you can choose from a bunch of different types of squats depending on your goal), a few more muscle groups, like the muscles of the six pack (rectus abdominis), obliques, and lower back (erector spinae), often referred to as the ‘core muscles”. It’s a compound exercise, which involves movement of the hip, knee and the ankle joint.
