    Default 375 x 2: Are these squats high?

    Rip, I let my elbows come down at the bottom which caused my upper back to round. I think this is contributing to the bar shifting forward on my back and mucking up the back angle. I need to fix this.

    Am I right about all this?

    Also, these squats didn't feel high when I did them but in the video they look high-ish. Are they?

    Thanks.

    They are right at parallel, so they're fine with me. If you keep your elbows up at the bottom you upper back will stay tight. This may involve you thinking about raising them as you approach the bottom.
