Squats are more than just a gym exercise—they help with everyday tasks like sitting, standing, lifting, and climbing stairs. Proper squatting strengthens your legs, core, and glutes, making daily movements easier and preventing injury.

Common mistakes include letting your knees cave in, lifting your heels, leaning forward, squatting too shallow, and not engaging your core. To fix this, push your knees out, keep your weight in your heels, brace your core by pulling your belly button in, and focus on sitting back into your squat.

Mastering squats improves posture, balance, and functional fitness, making you stronger and more mobile in daily life.

A strong core is essential for maintaining balance, posture, and stability, helping prevent injuries and enhancing overall physical performance. Core exercises like Dead Bugs, Bird Dogs, Planks, and Diaphragmatic Breathing promote better coordination and functional strength, making daily tasks easier and reducing strain on the body. By improving your core, you’re investing in a healthier, more active lifestyle.
