Haunches description |
---|
Squatting is a posture where the weight of the body is on the feet (as with standing) but the knees and hips are bent. In contrast sitting involves taking the weight of the body, at least in part, on the buttocks against the ground or a horizontal object such as a chair seat. The angle between the legs when squatting can vary from zero to widely splayed out, flexibility permitting. Another variable may be the degree of forward tilt of the upper body from the hips see particularly here and here. Squatting may be either:* full known as full squat, deep squat, (sitting) on one's haunches, (sitting) on one's hunkers, or hunkering (down) see text and see image gallery * partial known as partial, standing, half, semi, parallel, shallow, intermediate, incomplete or monkey squat etc. see text and see image gallery.Crouching is usually considered to be synonymous with squatting. It is common to squat with one leg and kneel with the other leg. One or both heels may be up when squatting. Young |
