Squat Anatomy: Unlock Your Potential
This document discusses how bony anatomy influences squatting and glute training. It explains that the orientation of the hip socket and femoral neck determine hip mobility and the ideal squat stance and foot positioning. A more forward-facing hip socket allows deeper squats but less hip extension, while a retroverted socket allows more extension but shallower squats. Femoral neck angle also influences abduction, external rotation, and closed chain foot positioning. Understanding bony limits can help identify the best exercises within one's anatomical capabilities rather than forcing undesirable ranges of motion.
