Can you do the Asian squat?



I can't do it yet. My ankles are stiff as heck.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Everyone can't do this? Wtf?

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Nope. I doubt the majority of Americans can.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I can squat but I've never been flexible

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I can squat, I just can't do it with my feet flat like this video just yet. If I hold on to something in front of me I can, I just fall over when I let go. I can't seem to transfer my weight forward enough. Feels like my ankle mobility is the main issue.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Oh! You're right! I don't squat like that either

I do it on the balls of my feet

Ah, well… win some, lose some

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Ankle flexibility is often overlooked. So is strengthening the tibialis musculature. I always, always had my clients work on that, regardless of why they were training with me.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Ohhhh! Are you a physical therapist?

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Yeah I had to flex my mom's ankle for her Achilles tendon and tibulis muscles after she got a Charlie Horse from sleeping in an awkward position. I noticed that she doesn't have full range of foot motion anymore after her health crisis last year.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I can!

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I can't. I'm on the ball of my feet when down into the squat. I can stay there for a good 2 minutes before losing balance.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Nice! That's a very good sign!

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

It sit butterfly style and/or criss cross. I like to remain flexible!

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I think it's easier for short people to squat that way. I've had practice because things that I normally need are closer to the ground. Especially when I'm grocery shopping in a grocery store. The items I need often would be located on the bottom shelf requiring me to either bend over or squat in order to retrieve it. Usually I shuffle what's on the shelf cause I'm looking for the best expiration dates so I'm in that squating position for a full minute.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

One of my friends said that too. She acted like I couldn't do it because I'm tall? I'm not even that tall though, I'm only 5'8. Think I just have to work on my flexibility.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

5'8" is taller than average for a woman

You probably have no trouble reaching things on the top shelves

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I often squat and read like that a lot as it takes pressure off my back.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Keep it up!!

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

My kid's white father could remain in the Asian squat for long periods of time. I envied him because he didn't need a chair and he looked so comfortable. Lol

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

It does put strain on your quads after a while, but I like that it temporarily takes pressure of my lower back.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I keep falling backwards. Lol

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

There's a number of filmboards posters I wouldn't trust in this position tbh.

This seems pretty easy to me but I've been doing squats for years.

Can you do this? 2 mins onwards



Thank you for talking to me

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Not anymore. When I was taking dance classes I could do that.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

You should try it just now and see you get on. Just go all out - I believe in you!

Thank you for talking to me

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

It would take months

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I always heard of it as the slavic squat.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Great video. I'm always wearing those adidas shoes. So comfortable.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Yes.

Cheerio.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I can do it but it was way harder than I expected to get my heels flat on the floor

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I think you just have to practice everyday. Stay in that position for a minute or so and you'll be golden in no time! Being able to comfortably do this is my main fitness goal right now. That and being able to do 11 pushups.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I want to practice now too! I lost so much flexibility in the last year it's scary. Everyone told me your body falls off a cliff at 30 but I didn't believe them. I work out too 😭

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

It's good that you don't believe them. I was doing high-impact aerobics at 31

Women much younger came into the class and thought it was brutal

Maybe it's because I used to go out dancing a lot

Things started going a bit south for me when I turned 56, and I've aged a lot just in the past couple years

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Yes. I’m surprisingly flexible and nimble… ladies.

I live. I die. I live again.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

You should be, you're also quite young

If only that were true…

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Just concentrate on your assets and take it easy on the poison

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

The poison allows me to live. Very paradoxical, I know. But it's the truth.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

In moderation though, okay?

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I can't do that, but I can do that leg crossing like the yogis do. I can also reach my foot to my head.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

Can you….never mind. Totally unrelated- do you think Kirk could do this? He seemed to demonstrate some kind of flexibility in his younger years.

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

No, I wish lol. I might start trying. Couldn't hurt. At worst, I'll just be more flexible.

Some women can suck their own nipples too because their boobs are long

It's not something I like to think about 😝

Gag me

Re: Can you do the Asian squat?

I can't do that, but when I was in my 20s and a lot thinner I could blow myself and eat my own ass.

Speaking of Koirk, doesn't this video remind you of him? He gets super offended whenever anyone posts it 😂
