Squats burn more calories than many other exercises and can be performed at home, at work, in the gym, in the park, in fact, anywhere. In addition to strengthening the gluteus and thigh muscles, squats will improve posture and balance.
Exercising squats will also speed up your metabolism, which will encourage faster fat burning and result in weight loss. Overall, regular squats will improve your quality of life and make everyday tasks and commitments easier.
For starters, it’s important to know how squats are performed properly: when we’re in a squat position, it’s important that your knees don’t go over the toes. If you perform the squat correctly, you will feel the contractions of the gluteus muscles during each repetition or return from the squat to the starting position.
If you don’t feel the muscles tighten, then you are most likely transferring your body weight to the front of your foot instead of your heels. This means that most of the work is done by the quadriceps, not the gluteus muscles. To correct this, shift your body weight to your heels and squeeze your glutes as you return to the starting position. You will feel a burning sensation in your buttocks during exercise. Most experts advise performing a set of ten to twenty or thirty squats a day, two to three times a week.
Your squat plan may be as follows:
20 squats a day - perfect for beginners. If you are adding squats to your exercise program, you should not perform more than 20 squats in the beginning. When it becomes easy for you, you can increase the number of squats.
50 squats a day - great for those who especially want to speed up metabolism.
100 squats a day - ideal for people who want to see and feel the many results of exercise, including increasing muscle mass, better endurance, and lifestyle changes in general.
