    I posted in Rip Q&A, but I wanted other feedbacks too.

    And at a slightly lower weight:

    I've been trying to adjust weights lighter to get the form correct. But I still fear that there are things missing. Thank you for your harshest critiques.

    Refresh my memory, what was wrong with your previous squats again?

    Curiously, the first video looks better than the second. It's a little uglier, but depth is better.

    Previous ones were too high and I didn't shove out my knees enough.

    I'd like to know what the ugly part is?

    It's just not as smooth and pretty, because of the heavier load.

    Thanks.

    Do you think I should continue from the weight at the first video, or still drop a bit lower to fix some back arch issues? People here (on that other squat form check thread with the same video video because it was moved from Rip Q&A section to here) and from some other forums have pointed out that I have the issue of weak back arch. Or is the breakdown of form inevitable?
