Many people call that the Asia squat, so yes, I believe it’s very common in Asia. I can do it, but it took me awhile of just stretching my way down and holding it until I can now do it all the way down.

Before I retired, I used to go by the offices and cubicles of the hard core weight lifting guys and just quietly do the squat outside their office door. Lots of people who lift aren’t very flexible.
