It isnt hard you just have to turn your toes out instead of straight ahead. The american squat is easier to launch out of.

hahaha, Ive got a bunch of Asian friends all of whom do that and Ive asked how they can stand doing it. I find it very uncomfortable.

Maybe its for shorter legged people?? I can't bring my knees near that close or they would be on each side of my head :confused:

EDIT: <-- Is half black, half white

Those with big tummies who do the asian squat, does it hurt or feel uncomfortable? What if you're pregnant, bad for the baby?

Is there also an asian lay?

Very intriguing information, where can I subscribe?

some girls can do the asian squat while keeping their legs together, its an odd sight since it looks like they're ready to fall over

I think something between your legs is getting in the way ;)

To the white folks who can do the asian squat, can you hop forward and backwards while in the squat?

:Q:D

if your doing a real legit asian squat, you should be able to hop forwards and backwards like a bunny

I'm asian ... I can do it.

I normally do the "western" one though because its easier to launch up from, provided you're not in that position too long (it is more uncomfortable after longer periods of time).
