Why is it possible for asians to squat for a long time in rice fields?

Asians are able to squat for long periods of time due to a combination of genetic factors, lifestyle habits, and cultural practices that have reinforced squatting as a comfortable resting position.

Is a squat eccentric or concentric?

Both. Concentric: Exercise where the muscle is contracted under a load Eccentric: Exercise where the muscle is stretched under a load. So when you squat down its eccentric, when you come back up its concentric. Most exercises are both, with a few exceptions (i.e. jumping of a wall is mainly eccentric, while a punch is mainly concentric. Eccentric contraction is associated with increased muscle growth, but also DOMS (Delayed onset muscle soreness, when your muscles are very sore after a workout).
