Strengthening the Pelvic Floor for Squats
Stabilizing the pelvic floor is crucial for core stability and strength during squats. Imbalances in the pelvic floor can lead to instability in the bottom squat position. To address this, performing isometric holds just above the bottom of the squat can help strengthen the lower range of the movement. By breaking the bottom third of the squat into multiple isometric holds, individuals can progressively build strength in that position. To prevent falling back while squatting, consider front squats or lower bar squats. Avoid going 'ass to grass' and stop an inch or two short of the bottom to focus on stabilizing and strengthening the weaker area.
