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.

As the say: You're ripping off your heels, you're not respecting the men

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 that’s 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 I’m instantly good at or I don’t do them at all.

I see you're a "gifted child" as well!

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

It can be trained. Your calves are probably too tight.
Source, am person who can squat with heels on the ground, couldn't do it my whole life until 6 months ago.

I've never seen these two together. Now this is cinema.

I tried training it once and i didn't see any difference after about 3 months so I stopped. I really don't care enough to try again.

I have always been able to slav squat with ease, but never really been flexible enough to touch my toes. At one point in my life, I was able to do the splits but still not able to touch my toes.
Our bodies are all just different and flexible or not in different ways.

Once you get it you'll find it's the best way to stretch your back, but it takes a while. Kneesovertoesguy has a few good videos about getting to that point. I learned to do it by watching construction workers on break in China

My ankle flexibility makes it impossible for me. So my career path is fixed I guess.

A weighless squat is just a basic balance thing. People are just imagining it's more difficult than it is because they don't move around enough.

Seriously... bunch of people grossly out of shape, I guess. Even the most basic, normal exercise squat gets you like 90% of the way there...
