Question about yoga squat

[jackie7]

I have read that the yoga squat is more beneficial than Kegals for strengthening the pelvic floor. My question is this - should my knees be over my toes, beyond my toes or over my ankles? Thanks

Can you describe the yoga squat? I do a lot of yoga, but I'm not sure what you're referring to?

Thanks!

I'm thinking chair pose. Vee, where are you?

I think she is talking about the squat used in P90X Yoga X, X Stretch and Kenpo X. I think it is called prayer squat. It looks like a sumo wrestler in his resting position with hands in prayer.

Would this be it? Garland pose?

That picture is exactly what I needed. Most of the other pictures looked like the knee could have been past the toes, but this one doesn't. Thanks!
