BENEFITS OF SQUATTING
First, let us get one misconception about squats out of the way: squats are NOT bad for your knees. You might have heard that this anecdote from somewhere, but a study has already disproved it.
The article determined that squats don’t harm the ligaments after all. It does the opposite – it strengthens the cartilage tissues as you do more squats at various depths. As long as you have a good form and proper techniques, squats won’t kill your knees.
The caveat is that it can have detrimental effects if you’ve had a previous injury on your knees. In that case, it’s better not to put too much load on your knees.
If you’re healthy, there are a lot of squat benefits. Here are some of them.

1. SQUATTING STRENGTHENS THE MUSCLE
The primary targets of squats are the obvious ones: the hamstrings, quads, and the glutes. Apart from these, though, this exercise is great for targeting other muscle groups as well.
It’s a compound movement, meaning it involves more than one joint. Even bodyweight squats involve the muscle groups in your back, your core, your hips, and such. If you throw in weights, you can also target your shoulders and arms.
As a natural consequence, doing squats can make you run faster and jump higher. You’ll also be increasing your core strength, which will improve your overall athletic ability.

2. SQUATTING TONES THE MUSCLES
It goes without saying that people like squats because of its visible effects on the muscles. Those who want to tone their buttocks usually go for squats as their primary exercise.
Still, as we said above, squats target other muscle groups as well. This means it can also help tone your whole body.
Of course, we’re not saying that only doing squats will get you those sweet defined biceps. This exercise only helps, so you’ll have to do specific exercises for those areas, too.

3. SQUATTING INCREASES YOUR BONE MINERAL DENSITY
Weighted squats, such as a dumbbell squat, can also improve the bone mineral density. This is the measure of the bone’s health and strength.
There’s a study that has observed this effect, concluding that supervised squat exercises can be an effective treatment for suffering from osteopenia or osteoporosis. In only 12 weeks, the patients’ bone mineral content increased by 2.9 to 4.9%. The exercise also improved the other variables of skeletal health.
This also suggests that it helps keep the bones healthy, which can help prevent having a reduced bone mass in the first place.

4. SQUATTING IMPROVES YOUR FLEXIBILITY
As we age, our body becomes less elastic and less so if we lead sedentary lifestyles. This can prevent us from doing daily activities and lead full lives.
As it turns out, squats help with that, too. It involves a full range of motion, bending and stretching the muscles in your legs, ankles, and hips. That helps improve flexibility.
What does this mean for you?
Well, flexibility isn’t all about being able to put your foot on top of your head. It also means less back pain and more nimbleness for everyday activities or sports.

SQUATTING MINIMIZES RISK OF INJURY
Flexibility, as well as balance and strength, is also a factor in preventing injuries. Each one of these, squats can improve.
You use your muscles and these 3 properties in everything you do – from getting out of bed to running a full marathon. Cardio activities are especially notorious for damaging the joints., It’s fortunate that squats can also cut that risk.
