In this video, Jonathan from the Institute of Human Anatomy explores why some people are naturally better built for squatting and what you can do to improve your squat. He discusses how center of gravity and bone length impact your squat form, as well as which muscles could be limiting your squat. Learn about the biomechanical advantages and limitations of having a longer femur versus a shorter femur and how to address the "butt wink" issue. Plus, learn exercises and positioning tips to help you achieve a deeper squat while maintaining proper alignment!
