Can you recommend stretches/exercises or resources/videoss to help with extending range of motion for squats?
I am a 49 year old male who has been resistance training for about 5 years (including squats)....and can't get as low in a squat as the man in the picture (I can only get my thighs just past horizontal w/ body weight....with a weighted bar I can only get to horizontal)
thanks in advance...would love to be able to squat like the man in the picture
I am planning a video soon about stretching and getting deeper in the squat - should be up in the next couple weeks.
Check the posts on stretching linked on the right (Daily Stretches for Strength & Health, The Stigma of Stretching, and Getting Under The Bar - Help for Stiff-Shouldered Squatters). Let me know if you find them helpful.
