    Default Hips rise faster [Squat]

    Hey Rip,

    Thanks a lot for all the things you have done for the lifters all over the world.
    Since I started with SS my training changed to the best it ever was!
    But I have a problem i cant solve.

    When I am squatting with weights which exhausts me, my hips rise faster then my chest do.
    I have 3 Videos, were you can see it. But the videos are not from the same day.

    3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y10TB...ature=youtu.be (45° rear)
    The last video is the newest. I know, i have to work on my eye gaze.

    I tried to cue the hips rise faster problem with the mastercue, elbows up, back tight, chest up, knees out. But nothing realy worked. Now a great guy told me that i am pushing me knees back, when I go up.
    Do you see some other reasons for my problem? And do you know some cues for the knees going back?

    Thanks a lot!

    Greats

    I think i have to rise my hips up (Hip Drive), but my upper body has to be locked at the same angle it was at the bottom.

    If your hips rise first and your back is locked in solid extension, this will require a slight initial change in back angle. If it is excessive, your are doing a "goodmorning" instead. Your squats are mostly okay.

    Thank you! Even in the last set? Is there anything I have to do, to become a good form in every rep, or just becomming stronger, faster then increasing the weights?

    They start to degrade in the last set, thus the "mostly" in the response. The reps where the bar goes forward are wrong.

    How can i fix the wrong reps? Theoretically I know, the bar has to be over the middlefoot, but while squatting its just happening...

    Keep your chest up when it gets hard.

    When I am increasing the weight 5lb per workout, keeping my chest up becomes more and more impossible for me.
    After a few Workouts my form always looks so ugly, I could need a deload. But I dont want deloads to be a regular part of my progression.
    I Want to do your programm. I want to do SS.
    And not starting with 150lb increaing to 170lb (with bad form) decreasing to 160lb (with good form) increasing up to 180 (with bad form)...

    I am 6ft tall and weighting about 187lb. I gained 7lb in the last 6weeks, while doing SS. 7lb in 6weeks ist not so mutch, but i didnt start as a skinny guy.

    What do you think? Does I have to do a deload, or just eating more and learn to handle the weight soon? And when i am doing a delaod, how can i prevent to become a ugly form again?

    These look okay, but your bounce is very "quiet."
