of course you do. These squats are high and you have excessive knee slide. Have you read the book?

Yes, the video is pretty poor.

Why only two reps? Were these work sets?

From what I can see, these two reps are both high. You need to get your back angle more horizontal earlier, and likely shove your knees out more/better, because you're leaning over at the bottom to try and make depth.

Your hips are shooting backward on the descent. Really focus on driving them upward as if your sacrum is being pulled up by a chain.

Hip flexor discomfort tends to imply knee slide. Your knees need to get set by the first 1/3 to 1/2 of the descent and kept there until the same point on the ascent. Can't really see from this video where half of your body is out of frame. It could also mean a stance issue or that you're simply not shoving your knees out.

You need to work on your grip. You're carrying the bar with your hands given those extended wrists.

Yes i have, they're high because the lower I go the more pain in groin/hip flexor area. Do I correct the knee sliding by pushing the knees out?

[deadlifttillimdead]

I had just finished my working sets when i noticed that my hip area was realt tight and uncomfortable so i filmed these two reps for the form check.

Knees out, hips back, nipples down.

My stance is slightly wider than shoulder width with toes pointing 30 degrees out, a couple of days ago i squated 198 lbs for 3 sets of 5, no pain at all, i did the stretch (elbows to knees), zero pain in hip flexors and hit depth real good. I did the same process before squatting today but once i got to 176 i felt real tight in the groin/hipflexor area and the more sets I did the more it ached in that area

If that is the form you are using for all of your squats, it is the reason for your pain. Clean up the movements with cues posted above.

Would love to offer some useful input, but this makes it incredibly difficult. Please read the sticky on videoing and repost when you get a chance.
That said, the first fix is your hip drive, which is almost non-existent on the first rep. Further, it doesn't look like your back is tight and appears your lumbar spine is rounding at the bottom. Or it could be the sweatshirt. Are you utilizing a valsalva and keeping everything tight?
