How to stop falling over in a deep squat position

By Sally
Wednesday, September 17th, 2014

Feeling like you are going to fall over when in a deep squat position is very common. Most people think it’s just lack of flexibility but it is also lack of balance. Follow these drills to improve flexibility and improve balance.

How to use deep squat drills in your training

Do these drills pre-workout, as part of your warm up.

Step 1: deep squat position with heels on floor 2-4 minutes

Step 2: moving around in deep squat position 2-4 minutes

Step 3: goblet squat stretch 10 reps

Step 4: full goblet squat 5 sets of 10 reps (squat warm up and pulse raiser)

You can improve even in one session. If you are really struggling I recommend doing these drills 2-3 times per week for 3 weeks.
