    Default Squat Check After Depth Adjustment

    Hey all,

    Im in the first few weeks of the Starting Strength program. I posted a video of my squat last week and was informed by Mr. Pete Troupos that the cut off was too high. (Old video can be seen here: YouTube).

    I figured the problem was I wasn't pushing my knees out enough so I made that adjustment this week. Here is the video:

    Please let me know how I can improve, thank you.

    Wrap your thumb over the bar and straighten up your wrists. Bend over more and sit back. Stay midfoot.

    Thanks for the help Sean. It would seem then that I am guilty of all the cardinal squat sins coach Rip frequently writes about, which is a rather embarrassing situation to be in. I'll practice the corrections you suggested in my upcoming workouts.
