Tuesday Training Tip
💰Squatting is a tool, not a rule - the best squat depth depends on the athlete, their sport, and their performance needs.
While deep squats can be beneficial in certain contexts, modern strength and conditioning coaches. emphasizes a more nuanced, sport-specific and athlete-centered approach to squatting, incorporating factors such as limb angles, limb stiffness, force-velocity spectrum, and movement transfer to sport performance.
Squatting at various depths (deep, parallel, above parallel, quarter) can all contribute to strength and power if programmed properly.
🏋🏻‍♂️In short, modern sports performance training recognizes that squatting is a tool, not a religion—and using multiple depths strategically yields the best results for athletic performance.
