Squat form check. Need help please.
Hi, I’m new to the forum.
I need help on my squat form.
I know it’s not good. But I’m not sure where to start addressing my form.
The only things I think I’m doing right, is squat depth, and keeping my knees from sliding at the bottom of the movement.
The ‘UP’ part of my squat looks very ugly.
My hips have been hurting for a month now.
The pain seem to be deep in the hip joint.
I feel sharp pains in my hips. Sometimes when shifting weight to one leg, or pivoting on one foot. Or sometimes laying in bed and changing leg positions to get comfortable.
I also get deep hip pain while getting up out of a chair, after sitting for a period of time. They feel stiff too.
Putting on my socks it’s getting harder. Than it use to.
I’ve always had mobility issues putting on my socks, but it seems worse now that I am squatting heavier. It’s difficult to pull my leg up to my chest so I can put socks on.
My knees feel stiff and tight too when having to bend them during daily routines, like picking something off the floor at work or at home.
