ALWAYS DO FULL SQUATS

Partial squats are never good.

They neglect the hips and hamstrings.

When an athlete stops above parallel

His knee joints are forced to halt the

Downward momentum.

But once the athlete goes below parallel

that stress is transferred to the more

Powerful groups in the hips, hamstrings,

And adductors.

Full squats keep all these muscle groups

Proportionately strong.
