Why is it that toddlers bend over to pick stuff up with perfect squatting form? They always bend at the knees and have straight backs.

Interesting isn’t it?! Great job observing this. It’s fantastic you know what good posture and movement patterns look like to identify this! The cause here is that as we develop, our brain overpowers natural instinct so we do what’s easiest and quickest. Unfortunately, we don’t realize that over time, these shortcuts we take have a toll on our muscles and joints until one day it becomes painful and then we begin reverting back to the habits of a toddler by necessity. If you’ve ever seen anyone with acute, excruciating low back pain, you also see they move in a very methodical, toddler-like fashion.
