    Hi, I need a form check in this squat YouTube. FIrst thing I noticed is that in the first reps I should have put my elbows up. Not sure about the rest.

    Thanks

    Your elbows are fine, but you're bringing your knees back to soon on the ascent. Try to keep them in place a little longer.

    Do you have any tips for that ? Also, I don't remember reading about knees coming back too soon in SS, do you have any texts where I might learn more about it ? Preferably SS texts.

    Thanks

    Your knees should get to their forward position by the time you're halfway down and stay there until you are halfway back up. A coach or using a tubow works well to train this aspect of the squat.

    Thanks
