High bar squat form check - bar path
Link -> X - YouTube
Previous form check -> High bar squat form check - depth issue
Weight = 115kg x 3 x 5
Age = 20
Height = 6ft 5.5
I have an anatomical kyphosis (hunch back) so I do high bar squats.
I moved onto HLM and this is my light day squats (after deadlifts and incline pressing)
My bar path has been way off for quite some time but I finally think I'm getting the hang of it. I'm thinking about shoving my ass back hard and my knees out on the descent and leading with my chest out of the hole. I think these are much improved compared to my last form check.
Apologies about the shit angle, I was only concerned with bar path.
Any thoughts/criticisms/suggestions?
Thanks

The bar path is good, but you're pushing your butt back and letting your knees slide forward.
Instead, break at the knees and hips at the same time. Push your knees forward quickly, then keep them there, and 'sit' back until you're in the full squat.
Not form related, but did you run out all of linear progression?
