Today, Human 2.0 Coach Dan Jones will demonstrate the shrimp squat (a single leg squat & bodyweight exercise) that helps to develop lower body strength and mobility.. Dan will go over the benefits of doing the shrimp squat, and give you tips for how to do it for any level and ability, with options and progressions for beginners and for those who are more advanced as well.
The shrimp squat is a great bodyweight exercise which you can do anywhere because it doesn’t involve any gym equipment – it just involves using your bodyweight.
Single leg squats are important strength training tools because often times, one side of the body will be stronger than the other. You want to develop strength in a balanced way, not letting one side compensate for the other.
With the shrimp squat, you will develop overall body awareness, coordination, proprioception, and physical literacy skills, as well as hip, ankle, and knee mobility, quadricep, hamstring, calf, and general lower body and core strength. It is good for so many things. Incorporate it into your fitness routine today. Don’t be afraid to give the shrimp squat a try!
One thing to pay attention to in maintaining good form and proper technique is to make sure to track the knees out over the feet. You don’t want to let your knees angle in or out away from that line putting them into either a valgus or varus position because doing so can lead to injury. Practice injury prevention and keep knee pain away with the shrimp squat, but pay particular attention to your knee position in this case.
