      The first squat position is with the feet shoulder-width apart. We call it a narrow squat.

      The second kind of squat stance is with your feet shoulder-width apart. We call it a wide squat.

      The first type of squat angle is a squat from standing with both feet until the knees are at a 90-degree angle. This type of squat is called a half squat.
