    Hey coaches, please give me some feedback on my squat form.
    I think the bar is too high for lowbar?
    On the 3rd set you can see the bar path go too far forward on the right side, but i don't really know what to do about it.

    Thanks for your time and sorry for my basic english.

    3rd Set


    4th Set

    You only need to work on two things here. The first will help the second:
    1) Gaze - get your head down and have it pointed at / looking at a spot 1.5m in front of you.
    2) Imagine a slot that extends vertically from the floor, even with your mid-foot. Make the bar stay in that slot.

    Bar does look too high.

    Keep your head down--your spine, neck, head should be a straight line.

    Other than that I'd say you've got good form with just some minor sliding around the knees which changing both of these will correct. Moving the bar down will correct the back rolling forward on the way up on some reps--the weight is not at your balance point over mid foot right now.
