Try putting the belt in different spots and see if that helps. It shouldn’t be painful but not comfortable either

Thanks for posting the links.

Your knees need to be shoved out more aggressively and stay there. Also your spine is flexed. Review pages 20-21 and 42-44 of the squat chapter. I wouldn't deload since your issues are technique related and not strength related. Get coaching if the issues persist.

Thanks for the response. I have the second edition of SS, assume those pages numbers are from the 3rd edition but I should be able to work out which bits of the book you mean if the pages changed between versions.

Yeah, it's the third edition. It's the stretch where you squat down and push your knees out with the elbows (20-21) and the drill where you lie flat on your stomach and lift your feet and shoulders off the ground slightly (42-44). I like to do those drills in between sets just to feel and memorize the right back and knee positioning.
