This post demonstrates how to perform a double leg squat and a single leg squat with a vertical shin. A vertical shin helps take the load from the knees and puts the weight back into the posterior chain: hamstrings and glute max. The single leg squat also engages the gluteus medius, which is important for stabilizing the pelvis.
