Move of the week: cossack squats improves hip and ankle mobility
By Chloe Gray

Welcome to our weekly Move of the Week series. Every Monday, we’ll be sharing with you one of our favourite exercises – how to do them, what muscles they work and why they should be a regular part of your workout regime. This week: cossack squats.
Building a functional body means improving mobility, strength and flexibility. That’s particularly important in your lower body – after all, your legs carry you around all day. And if there’s one that can do it all, it’s the cossack squat.
Whether you want to use it in a warm-up or load it up with weights as part of your strength training routine, this move should be part of your lower body workout. Add it in and thank us later.
