So after spending an extended period of time in Asia and Africa, I would consider myself a connaisseur of squatty potties. So I thought that it might be beneficial to future racers, or anyone who finds themselves in the mountains of Kentucky, if I gave a few pointers on the various methods and positions that can be used when you poop in a hole.
This is a classic “squatty potty”. They can range from an outhouse as pictured, to a hole in a field. Either way no matter how you try to dress it up, your still pooping in a hole in the ground.
I call this The Missionary. This is the standard position that anyone would use. It’s easy to aim and easy on the knees. Just position your feet correctly…if not aiming could be a problem.
This is The Crab. When diahhrea or constipation leaves your legs sore this can be a good substitute. Just make sure you wash your hands afterwards…
I call this The Wall Prop. Use this when The Crab is necessary but the person before you missed…it happens.
I call this The Confident. When you have a good amount of skill and an even larger ego take this challenge. It’s also good for people with weak knees.
This is The Lazy Boy. When you have the skill to do The Confident but lack the drive to stand long enough to get your business done, this is a respectable solution.
Finally, if you’re like me and get bored easily and look forward to a good challenge. You can try The Long Drop. Try it at your own risk though, if your aim is off it can get messy.
I hppe this quick guide was hopeful to you. If you have any ideas or pointers that I have not thought of, please share them!
