Take your squat to the next level with Onward Mini Boards 💪🙌
Top 5 benefits 👇
Better Quad Activation: Elevating your heels shifts your center of gravity forward, which forces your knees into greater flexion and places more focus on the quadriceps, especially the VMO (vastus medialis oblique) muscle above the knee.
• Improved Depth and Form: The incline bypasses tight ankles, allowing you to achieve a deep squat while keeping your torso upright.
• Reduced Lower Back Loading: An upright torso eliminates the excessive forward leaning common in standard flat-surface squats, taking pressure off the lumbar spine.
• Knee Pain Relief: using a onward mini board helps distribute loading more evenly across the knee joint and strengthens stabilizing muscles 💪
• Easier Ankle Workaround: It serves as a practical tool for people with limited dorsiflexion (ankle mobility) to still achieve full range-of-motion leg training.
