    Default Squat form check

    As the weight has increased, I feel like I may be losing my form. This is my second set of 5 @ 300lbs. I got the third set too (needed my phone for music and not video) with what felt like similar form (or lack thereof).

    What do you guys think form wise? Also, should I add weight for next workout or do I need to stop and correct myself?

    Thanks

    Those are nice squats, definitely good enough to continue adding weight.

    Get in your full breath of air before you start to go down. Also keep your chin tucked down.

    I'm concerned about your stance width and knees.

    Is there a reason why you're staying out of your knees so much and trying to keep such a vertical shin?

    I suspect your stance is too wide and your knees aren't staying out properly, but it's hard to say for sure given the angle. Can you get us a rear view?

    Sure, I'll get a rear view tomorrow.
