no u
its only some of them good social skills goy
@Mushroom đăăȘăăđđđ having fun with your emt?
@Campin' Carl if you are Bulgarian that is correct
They have the best hip geometry for squatting
>Hip geometry
That sounds like a bro-science myth. Is there *really* a significant distinction across ethnicities on how your hips are shaped?
@Nikephoros multiple scientific studies with cross sections of hips and hip sockets my guy
They talk a bit about geometry of patient hips in this
Shows you how geometry affects the squat
I'm trying to find the PDF of the study that has data based on ethnic groups
Im not saying I don't believe that hips can have any variation, but I am skeptical that different groups (especially within the same race) have distinct tendencies in hip structure.
This study is too broad
Like doesn't go into minute differences in ethnicities
It just says white vs black vs asian
The difference is enough that it gives advantage to Slavic people
From an evolutionary standpoint, something like hip geometry seems too insignificant to really manifest as tribal distinctions.
I'm at work, but I will see if I have the paper saved to my computer. The difference is significant and measurable
It's not insignificant at all lol
Mongolians have weird legs for literally riding horses all the time
You walk all the time
Pick shit up
Squat etc
So, slav squatting is...genetic??
I wouldn't say squatting in the street is
But how could you not!
But they have very good physiology to squat comfortable and have a lot of power from the hole
If you believe this genetic predisposition to be real, surely the slav squat cannot be mere coincidence!
Well the reason the squat in the street is most likely cultural
Asians and Indians squat a lot
But their advantage for squatting lies in height, not the hips
But aren't are cultural traits a factor of our genes as well as our environments?
Fair enough
Thats a rhetorical question
But other cultures without pro tier hips squat a lot
Very well. Still, I gotta admit I am genuinely amazed by this ethnic hip geometry info.
Fuck I cannot find this study
I have read it before when I was researching soviet and Bulgarian weightlifting programs in the past
