    Default Squat Check, High and Single(s) ?

    take a look,

    I think I'm too high,
    (unless I go frame by frame and then it's too close to call)

    the last rep or two,
    is the pause too long? to call them single(s)??

    what else ?
    call em as you see em.

    Definitely high. You reach the position just above a below paralell squat that is often confused for a full squat because the femur is parallel to the ground. If you play it in slow motion and pause at the bottom, you'll see your hip crease is about an inch or two above the top of your knee. Looks good other than that. (Disclaimer: I am still in my linear progression myself and don't believe I have the expertise or experience to catch minor nuances in the squat. Take advice at your own discretion.)

    was afraid of high , , ,

    off topics,
    how are you slow mowing?
    and frame by frame from that link?
    I don't see controls in U Tube other than play and pause

    There is a little settings wheel in the bottom right corner where you can change the playback speed to 0.5 and 0.25. Very helpful.
