They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

Squatting, what is it? And why do we do it?

The squat is a dynamic strength training exercise that requires several muscles in your upper and lower body to work together simultaneously.

Many of these muscles help power you through daily tasks such as walking, climbing stairs, bending, or carrying heavy loads. They also help you perform athletic-related activities.

Adding squats to your workouts can help boost your exercise performance, decrease your risk of injury, and keep you moving more easily throughout the day. But these are just a few of the benefits.

SWIPE TO SEE 5 BENEFITS AS TO WHY WE SQUAT…

What muscles do squats work?
If there’s one exercise that has the ability to challenge most of the muscles in your body, it’s the squat.

The obvious muscles targeted are in the lower body, but in order to do this compound exercise correctly, you also need to use several muscles above your waist.
The lower muscles targeted in a squat include your:
* gluteus maximus, minimus, and medius (buttocks)
* quadriceps (front of the thigh)
* hamstrings (back of the thigh)
* adductor (groin)
* hip flexors
* calves

In addition to the lower body, the squat also targets your core muscles. These muscles include the re**us abdominis, obliques, transverse abdominis, and erector spinae.

If you do a back squat or overhead squat, you’ll also work the muscles in your shoulders, arms, chest, and back.

⠀
Triangular Interval Syndrome (TIS) was described as a differential diagnosis for radicular pain in the upper extremity.
It is a condition where the radial nerve is entrapped in the triangular interval resulting in upper extremity radicular pain.
⠀
The radial nerve and profunda brachii pass through the triangular interval and are hence vulnerable. The triangular interval has a potential for compromise secondary alterations in thickness of the teres major and triceps. It is described based on cadaveric studies that fibrous bands were commonly present between the teres major and triceps. When these bands were present, rotation of the shoulder caused a reduction in cross sectional area of the space.
⠀
Hypertrophy of the teres major can occur secondary to weight training and potentially compromise the triangular interval with resultant entrapment of the radial nerve.
⠀
Shoulder dysfunctions have a potential for shortening and hypertrophy of the teres major.
⠀
The triceps brachii has a potential to entrap the radial nerve in the triangular interval secondary to hypertrophy. The presence of a fibrous arch in the long head and lateral head further complicates the situation.
