Hey this is way more comfy my my usual Putin stance. As I age it hurts more but the squat one feels fine.

I never understood how heels on ground squatting is possible I always just fall over trying.

It requires a certain amount of flexibility. Some are born with it, others have to work for it.

If you're falling over backward, your calves might be tight! Your ankles have to flex far enough for your feet to sit back far enough to be under your center of gravity.

Yeah thatās exactly it. If I squat such that my feet are flat then my center of gravity is waaay behind me. Luckily this has never impacted me in my day to day life.

Work for it? Sorry but that sounds like work, and I only do things Iām instantly good at or I donāt do them at all.

wrote last edited by [email protected]it's definitely a thing for me too
ideal deep squatting posture is one thing, but for me tight calves end up causing pain / other movement issues / difficulty sleeping too. if it ever ends up bothering you, standing calf stretches like runners do can help, or downward facing dogs, and if you have a resistance band you can do these:https://www.rehabhero.ca/exercise/banded-active-dorsiflexion

(if it never bothers you feel free to ignore, also posting this for the benefit of anyone else in this thread)
