How many squats should I do per day?

The number of squats you should do per day depends on your fitness goals and current level of strength. If you’re a beginner, start with 10-15 repetitions of each squat exercise and gradually increase the number as you build strength and endurance. As an average guideline, aim for 3 sets of 10-15 squats each day, with at least one rest day in between to allow muscle recovery. However, this can vary depending on individual abilities and fitness goals.

Which type of squat is best for hips?

All squats engage the hips to a certain extent, but specific squat exercises such as the sumo squat and low squat with reach target the hips more directly. These variations involve a wider stance and deeper bending of the knees, which places a greater emphasis on hip mobility. Other squat exercises such as goblet squats and Bulgarian split squats also engage the hips while targeting other muscle groups at the same time. It’s best to incorporate a variety of squats in your routine for overall strengthening and mobility benefits.
