5 Amazing Benefits of Squats You Need to Know

By now, you’re probably wondering what all the hype is with squats.

Everywhere you go, everybody is dropping it like it’s hot.

Well, here are my personal favorite benefits of doing squats.

1. Booty Shaping

Squats target the butt and thighs really well, leading to a nice perky shape.

I don’t know about you but this is enough of an incentive for me to get to squating.

Of course, the results of any squat challenge depends on your

• Diet
• Intensity
• Consistency and
• Use of weights

2. Leg Toning 

Squats are a great way to tone the muscles in your legs.

That’s what gives the lean, model look we all see on Instagram these days.

Squats are also great for keeping the thigh jiggle away.

3. Fat Burning (if you do them fast enough!)

Doing your bodyweight squats can also double as cardio if you move as fast as you can.

Of course, you have to maintain perfect form while doing so.

This is more of an advanced technique but I love it!

It’s a trick I learned from one of my favorite celebrity personal trainers.

Also, the more you squat, the better the quality of muscles in your legs and glutes.

The better your muscle quality, the more fat you can burn while you rest.

Yes, you read that right.

Again, another reason squats are so great!

4. Time Saving

Squats are compound movements.

This is just a fancy way of saying that they are efficient.

If you’re busy, you want to do exercises that give you the best bang for your buck.

That is, you want to do exercises that hit as many parts of your body as possible – all at once.

That’s exactly what squats do.

They let you do less and get more results.

Pretty nice if you ask me.

5. Confidence Building

I know this is a strange thing to include in a list about the benefits of squats.

But this is my truth so I’ll share it.

When I first started learning about squats, I felt very intimidated by them.

• I don’t have the best knees in the world
• I felt insecure about my form
• And I had no clue what I was doing.

I practiced as hard as I could and applied the advice I gave at the beginning of this post.

That is, start slow and steady. Don’t rush!

Over time, my technique improved.

My body improved.

My confidence grew.

Now I do 100 squats as my warm up for my real exercise routine.

For some people, it’s just squats.

But for me, it was a real game changer in showing myself what I could do.

How to Squat Correctly: 10 Highly Important Tips

1. Make sure your weight is in your heels (not your toes).
2. Be careful that your knees don’t tip past your toes throughout the exercise
3. Your core should be tight throughout the movement
4. Try to let your butt go as close to the floor as possible while also applying the 3 tips above.
5. Activate (that is, squeeze) your butt when you’re coming back up
6. Maintain a neutral spine
7. Pick a spot in front of you and try to stare at it throughout the movement
