Squat check
To control my knees not shooting forward as a few weeks ago, I placed a foam roll one inch in front of my foot.
I appreciate your advice.

Agree with the above. Add tightness, and add the bounce. Tight, controlled descent, then BOUNCE off the tightness in the hamstrings when you reach depth.

I have some difficulties with the tightness and used the tennis ball method to lift up the chest as described in the book. Pulling the arms down simultaneously adds a lot more tightness to the upper body. I was always going to deep, now I'm pressing my knees more outside and used a bench to stop me in the first set. For me it looks better now, I couldnt film, but got a pic of my depth squat_position_17_10_04.jpg
