In this functional squat evaluation, I show what happens when the calf muscles are extremely tight. The knees collapse inward, the feet pronate and the big toes go into valgus causing calluses. Also notice during the functional squat that she has to flex more at the waist to get closer to the floor. I make the functional squat evaluation part of most of my lower extremity exams because you can get a quick snapshot of how multiple joints are functioning.
