These are high and you are looking forward not down. The video angle sucks, too. Rear quarter at hip height, please. We can't see your feet, if your knees are over your toes, your back angle, nothing.

Where do you workout at? Seeing a coach would help a lot. Anyways,

1) let your knees come more forward and more quickly.
2)break knees and hips at the same time
3) butt back and DOWN. You are just pushing it back and bending from the chest to try and get to depth. You bend from the waist
4) you need to get much deeper. Commit to it.
5) stand straight up at the top. Your knees are ‘soft’.

Thanks for your reply. What do you mean by too high? I will film the video as you have suggested.

I am in Leeds England & I think the only coach is 300 miles away in London?

With regards to your other points:

1) I thought the idea was to limit the knee travel & this is why the TUBOW was used?
2) I am trying to hip hinge which results in reaking at the hips first. Is this incorrect?
3) As point 2 above.
4) Yes, I will concentrate on getting deeper.
5) Ok, I will concentrate on this also.

Thanks again.

That you are not hitting depth.

If you can go see Carl, it would be well worth it! Your knees still have to come forward and out. You are holding them back. You seem to have confused some things. That is ok! Watch these videos!!
