Sq x8 check

[Royce Nichols]

Just posted a paused DL video and figured we might as well check out the squats too. This was 285 for 8 (running one of Andy bakers programs). Thanks!

You're bringing your hips and knees forward at the bottom. Keep your low back in full extension and don't slide forward like that. Your grip seems like it's wider than it could be, is there a reason for that? Also, rack the bar using the same stance you use to unrack it and to squat, not with your feet staggered.

Royce, as you get tired, your upper back gets softer and you compensate by lifting your head. If you can get the bar about half its diameter lower on your back and get a little more of your hand onto the bar (like with a few fingers squeezing it) you'll probably find tightness easier to manage.
