More about this post...๐Ÿ‘‡ Dragon Squat ๐Ÿฒ I learned this movement a few years ago during lockdown. I saw the execution in a video and broke it down into its components: hip external rotation, ankle dorsiflexion, and quad strength. I initially learned it with the floating leg going to the side (variation #1) because thatโ€™s the video I saw when I decided to practice this skill. Recently, however, I started watching others perform it with the leg going in front (variation #2). Some of them: Today, I tested the second variation for the first time. Both are almost equally challenging as long as you get the torso down close to the floor, or even touching the floor for a split second. There is another โ€œvariationโ€œ (not shown) where the leg goes in front or even slightly to the side, but the torso remains facing forward. Thatโ€™s a significantly easier movement due to the reduced range of motion. I realized there are countless ways of doing a dragon squat, not just two. If you want me to make a video breaking down all the possible ways of doing it, Iโ€™ll be happy to do so! Which one is the โ€œreal dragon squatโ€œ? I donโ€™t really care, lol. Keep growing. Keep exploring. Keep observing. With Love, Gabo
