The #1 Stretch to Get a Deeper Squat
If you’re a modern human with tight hips and a squat that looks more like a toddler learning to ski than a graceful yogi, you’re not alone. Whether you call it a deep squat, a primal squat, an Asian squat, or the post-lunch Vietnamese noodle squat—you probably want to do it better. The good news? There’s a stretch for that.
Why You Can’t Squat Deep (Yet)
Years of sitting, stress, and tight hip musculature have likely robbed you of the ability to drop it low and stay there comfortably. And while some folks are born with naturally deep squat mobility, the rest of us need a little help unlocking those joints and tissues.
Enter: the stretch.
The Best Stretch for Deeper Squats
In this video, I show you one of the most effective hip stretches for unlocking squat depth. No gimmicks. Just real flexibility gains. Whether your goal is to chill in a squat after a pho lunch or stop your knees and back from barking every time you bend down, this stretch is your new best friend.
Benefits You Might Notice:
- Easier time sitting in a deep squat
- Less strain in the lower back and hips
- Improved mobility for workouts or daily life
Modifications for All Levels
Not everyone is ready to dive into a full stretch cold turkey, so I also walk you through modifications to help you progress safely—from stiff beginner to squat sorcerer.
Final Thoughts
You don’t need special genes or magical mobility powers to improve your squat. Just consistency, a good stretch, and maybe a little guidance (that’s where I come in).
