Squat check!

[Esmarch]

Hello everyone!

So, some months ago I posted a squat check and was told to:

- Get tight before each rep
- Keep looking down
- Drive hips properly

Since then I've had a back injury (facet joint syndrome) that I've spent a couple of months getting back from.

In this vid I can see that I'm still looking up when ascending, and that my feet are probably angled to far out. Anything else?

You're not going deep enough. In fact you're above parallel. It looks like your weight is on your toes. Have the knees set in the first 1/3 of the squat. Don't be afraid to sit back. It looks like you're staying tight throughout the squat.

It looks like your weight is on your toes.

I think I see your heels coming up when you're in the hole. Perhaps you can feel that when you squat, Esmarch.

Not really, but watching the video I can definitely see my heels lifting.

So for my next WO I'll focus on:

- setting knees early
- keeping bar over midfoot
- keeping gaze neutral
- getting deeper (I have a feeling stance and gaze will help with this)

Thanks a bunch guys.
