I bet if I asked you “What is more risky for your body, squatting or sitting?” you would say “well squatting, obviously.”  And, I can understand why…

We’ve been taught that squatting is dangerous… a sure-fire way to hurt your back and knees…sitting, on the other hand, must be safe because, well, we sit all the time and nothing bad happens right?

Yet another myth we’ve been sold.

The Squat Challenge is back!

This month’s Wellness Group Challenge is to sit in the bottom of a full squat for time every day.

On the 1st (today!) you’ll squat for 1 minute, on the 2nd two minutes, etc… all the way to the June 30th when we want to challenge you to stay in the bottom of a full squat for 30 minutes.

Squatting is one of the most fundamental movements we have as humans. In the final video of this 4 part video series Coach Rick – resident mobility specialist at Crossfit 613 – takes you through another series of simple squat tips.
