The squat is a foundational movement that requires more than just leg strength. A proper squat depends on your pelvic floor, abs, diaphragm, chest, lats, and even your feet working together to maintain what's called the beam phenomenon, your body's ability to stay stable and upright.

The squat is a very important movement to get down. Not only is it part of the seven probable movements which take us through life, but it's also really important for your postural system. So you want to have a strong pelvic floor, abs, diaphragm, pec lats, serratus anterior and buco mouth, pharyngeal down your throat, fascia. These components keep me in that beam phenomenon, and each one needs to be trained separately. But again, you're squatting, so don't forget your feet.
