The research is consistent.
Your ability to get up off the floor without using your hands is one of the strongest predictors of how long you'll live.
Not your cardiovascular fitness.
Not your weight.
Your movement quality.
Most adults have already lost significant squat depth by their thirties. It's not age.
It's disuse.
At CrossFit MYO, we coach the pattern first.
Ankle mobility, hip mechanics, thoracic position: we find what's limiting depth before we put any weight on the bar.
A loaded squat that's poorly patterned builds injury over time.
A well-patterned squat keeps you moving for decades.
Where does yours actually stand?
