The important thing is the flow where the knee moves toward the direction the toes are pointing, and the heel remains stable on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>In particular, as you go down, movement of the ankles and hips is required together. <u>The feeling of only bending the knees<\/u>see <strong>The feeling of bending the hips and knees together<\/strong>This looks more balanced.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_%EC%83%81%EC%B2%B4%EB%8A%94_%EC%96%BC%EB%A7%88%EB%82%98_%EC%88%99%EC%97%AC%EC%95%BC_%ED%95%A0%EA%B9%8C%EC%9A%94\"><\/span>3. How much should I bend my upper body?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Keep your upper body upright, but rather than fixing it completely vertically, it is better to let it fold naturally at the hips. Instead of bending at the waist, it should feel more like the torso leaning forward while maintaining the distance between the chest and pelvis.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color:#fff3b0\">There is no need to stick your chest out excessively.<\/span>, <span style=\"background-color:#fff3b0\">So that your back does not curl up<\/span> You just need to keep your gaze and neck relaxed. This becomes more important as the squat depth increases.<\/p>\n<p>The angle of the upper body varies slightly depending on body type. The longer the thighs, the more the body may lean forward, which can be seen as a natural way for the body to maintain balance.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_%EC%96%B4%EB%94%94%EA%B9%8C%EC%A7%80_%EB%82%B4%EB%A0%A4%EA%B0%80%EB%A9%B4_%EC%A2%8B%EC%9D%84%EA%B9%8C\"><\/span>4.
