It's when the squatter keeps their heels firmly planted on the ground instead of rising up on their toes. It is a simple motion that can be done even by a child. Westerners call it the "Asian squat."

Why do they call it that?

Because Westerners squat like this...

Where as Asian people squat like this...

See how Americans explain the "Asian squat" in technical terms...

The weight is more centered on the heels rather than the balls of your feet and knees, giving more support.  Asians have really flexible hip flexors,making this type of squat easier for them.

Where did the Asian squat come from?

Originating in India, the squat made its way to China, where Asians figured that it was the ideal way to eat rice and be ready to defecate at any given time.

It is surprising to find that most Westerners can't do the squat, which many Asian people think of as being as natural as breathing.

Here are a few possible reasons:

1. East Asians are relatively short, so they have a different equilibrium point than many Westerners.

No, that's not it. After all, Yao Ming can do it.

2. Many Asian countries have squat toilets. That may be another reason.

There is also another more professional view:

Asian people have more flexible heels than Westerners.
