    Hi,

    I wondered if I might get a depth check on the squat.

    Here I have 160kg on the bar:

    Thanks in advance.

    Can't see your feet at all. If I have to guess where they are, it looks like your knees cave in too.

    Since you overshoot with the knees (evident by watching the ascent and how they shoot back), I second Satch12879, but think about "hips back" and "knees out".

    Post again with a video showing your whole body including feet.

    The video seems taken with a tilted camera, which makes judging depth a bit harder, but I still think your squat is legal.

    Hope this helps,
