I’m a big believer in strengthening all parts of our functional range-of-motion.
Including these “stretch variations” after your strength workouts can be an awesome addition to your long-term fitness and joint health.
These are often avoided because they underload the muscles and overload our joints. This is exactly the reason most of us SHOULD train them. We’re only as strong as our weakest link
(Training progressively, meaning we don’t do a harder exercise than we are able).
I want to repeat – you can do these AFTER your workout if you wish. You don’t have to replace your current exercises. I say this because we’re often able to put less weight on these. This can be discouraging if you watch your weighted squat for from, say, 250 to 150.
It’s fine to follow your heavy squat set with assisted squats if that’s what you need to do. Your body will thank you for it!
