[@MiniYuuKi]

Literally, the Asian squat is supposed to stretch those muscles along your ankle. By wearing heels, your whole foot isn’t even touching the ground and that’s not an Asian squat.

[@biblionerd]

The Asian squat is when the heels are on the floor. That’s just a regular western squat. It’s harder for some people because a lot of western adults have shorter Achilles tendons.

[@ashleygingerale]

She’s also in heels which makes it easier for her

[@Arkyn.h]

“Regular western squat” sounds so funny, I don’t think I’ve *ever* seen anyone squat in public places or lines, her example was to do it when standing in line which is so weird to me. Imagine waiting for your turn and the person in front of you just drops into a squat lol

[@everylaurenislemons]

@@Arkyn.h squatting while waiting is more common in Asian countries but like the og commenter said, it’s harder for westerners to do it without raising their heels. While I worked in China, my Chinese coworkers would always giggle when they saw me squat bc my heels couldn’t touch the ground 😅

Yeah I am not sure that wearing heels is really gonna be a thing for me. (I'm a guy) though I'm pretty sure I can do it (I just did in between typing, but my heels aren't as nicely up, my butt still floats and my knees don't touch my shoulders. But it's really not that hard it just needs a good posture and you need to closely regulate the tension in your achilles and foot muscles and tendons. Then again I do a lot of circus stuff.)

[@guitard0g]

[@honeyappletoast]

@@360entertainment2as someone who’s worn heels and squatted to take photos before, it’s significantly easier in heels. the more natural squatting position for a lot of people is with the heels up, so when you’re wearing heels you can lean your weight back onto your heels while keeping the toe down position because of the build of the shoe. It’s incredibly easy in heels.

It serves the purpose of relieving your fatigue from standing. It doesnt matter if your foot is flat or on your toes. As long as it serves the purpose

[@adventurouspeach]

@@An0.nym0us if you’re on your toes tho it’s not the Asian squat Anyone can do it like this but with your feet flat it’s much more relaxed and less tension in the muscles and is much more well balanced However not everyone can do it with flat feet because their muscles are shorter and tighter from not doing it their whole life

[@An0.nym0us]

@@adventurouspeach idk, atleast for me its tiring to keep flat footed while closing my legs like the girl did on the video, because im leaning towards the back and i have to put effort into balancing. While compared to opening my legs, and pointing my feet to opposite directions while being flat footed is much more comfortable. Ig it just depends on what im wearing. If its a dress or somethinf i def shouldnt open my legs, I squat on my toes. And if im also carrying something then i also do that to. Otherwise i do an asian squat but wide open. Balancing sometimes is hard depending if your carrying something, so i just squat and see what it feels like and do the most comfortable one (close-on toes; open-on toes; close-flat foot; open flat foot)

a lot of it is that you need yo practice stretching the muscles. if you do it a lot as a kid when you're more flexible its a lot easier to do once you get older, or if you just keep trying and stretching slowly then eventually you'll be able to.

Although I don't wear or own any high heels myself I don't think it should make it easier or harder. I've tried it both barefoot, on running shoes, with a little bit of heel, and on my tiptoes, even withhigh rise boots (the only worry on that last one is that you'll crease the leather lol). The only difference was on the balance of the foot itself but the pressure and balance on the ankle and leg doesn't feel any different. If you have the body to do it you can do it regardless of the footwear.

[@darkraft1020]

[@davidpendleton2490]

Try doing it while lifting a wheel onto a wheelhub or with a toolbelt fully loaded on I say haha.

[@Scurvy_Soso]

​@@davidpendleton2490 with the wheel it's actually easier. When you crouch, you're usually on the tip of your feet to keep balance. Asian squat is supposed to be your feet flat, this shoft your center of gravity towards the back which, if you're not able to do those, will make you fall backward. By having something in your hands in front, it gives more weight to the front thus shifting your center of gravity frontward (that's actually a technique used to develop the muscles that will keep you balanced when your feet are flat)

[@japantz]

@@humourlessjester3584 the angle of the ankle is very different without heels. a lot of people don't have the ankle flexibility (or shin strength... I know it sounds weird) to place their bodyweight over their base (feet). This means that without heels it is harder for many. if you can balance on your toes, you can cheat by doing what she's doing without the heels... but your heels won't be on the ground, so your calves will start to burn after extended periods, so not as comfortable
