Squat is also called full squat. It is one of the most complex and practiced movements in bodybuilding. It is also a movement in powerlifting competitions. Squat has strong stimulation to the entire lower limbs and trunk. It can exercise quadriceps, gluteus maximus, biceps femoris, semitendinosus, semimembranosus, and erector spinae, gluteus minimus and calf muscles. It also has a strong effect. In addition, squats have a positive effect on cardiopulmonary function, neuroregulation, hormone secretion and other physiological and biochemical activities.
