书上第82页有提到深蹲的观念，其中谈到“Squat Stance (深蹲的步距)”，其原文如下：

If you are trying to break 1200 pounds for the squat, a wide stance is the ticket. It will allow you to keep your torso upright and squat the equivalent of a Volkswagen. But if you’re using the squat as an exercise to improve health and athletic performance, you need a stance that expresses a full range-of-motion, reveals problem, and transfer to other athletic movements.

(译：在进行深蹲时，若你的训练是要不断挑战重量极限，宽步距可以让你保持躯干的直立、更加的稳固。而若你是要透过深蹲训练来改善健康及运动表现，适合的步距可以挑战更大的活动范围、曝露身体的问题缺失并且将训练的效益移转到运动的动作表现。)

For most people, positioning their feet just outside the shoulders will accomplish that goal. This all-purpose squat stance has universality in sports – think of the ready position of linebacker, a tennis player, or a fighter’s combat stance.

(译：对于大部份的人来说，他们足部的距离是在肩膀的外侧，这种通用型的步距(All-purpose squat stance)在运动是十分常见，像是美式足球线卫、网球选手、格斗选手的准备姿势。)

From this same position you can tackle more advanced exercise – the front squat, overhead squat, and Olympic lifts – without having to adjust your feet. Remember the Miyamoto Musashi quote that I referenced in the introduction to this book: “Make your fight stance your everyday stance, make your everyday stance your fight stance."

(译：在通用型的步距姿势，可以在进行更多进阶的动作下(Front Squat、Overhead Squat或是奥运匹克挺举)，不用调整脚步的距离。宫本 武蔵说过一句话“Make your fight stance your everyday stance, make your everyday stance your fight stance.”。)

Establish a squat stance that best fits your goal as an athlete and allows you to practice good form. Personally, I mostly use an all-purpose stance, but on occasion experiment with a wide stance to throttle the stimulus.

(译：对于运动员来说，建立一个符合运动内容的步距，并在良好的姿势下进行练习。就个人而言，我大多使用通用型的步距，但有时候为了提高训练的负荷，会採取宽步距。)

最终，还是要取决于你目的性及安排，有的人训练是为了运动表现要更好；有的人是挑战个人负重的记录。先将前后的文章看完，然后跟教练讨论、用身体去感觉实际的差别啰。
