A member asked:

I had to take the shower squat down like 10 minutes diring and 30 afterwards. lightheadedness and extreme weakness like could not hold my body standing up?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

These symptoms are very understandable & expected after squatting that long. Decrease in blood return to the heart caused a drop in blood pressure with a decrease in circulation to the brain. Your symptoms should resolve as blood pressure and circulation normalize. Lying supine for a while should help. If you're not feeling well following a rest period, see your physician for evaluation and advice
