You don’t just squat to get stronger. Or gain muscle. You squat to be able to squat.
You may go weeks without be able to lift a kg more than you are able to.
Or weeks without being able to lift a single repetition more than in the session before.
You may squat for years without seeing your quadriceps get any bigger.
But squat you must simply because it is a capability worth fighting to maintain as a biped homosapien.
And it also goes without saying that pulling, throwing, pushing and carrying are all capabilities worth having.
