Squat form check 365 3x5
Hi guys, I've been taking 10 pound jumps from 315 to 365. This is my last set of 365. I've been having alot of trouble with keeping the bar over midfoot. It feels like I'm grinding out heavy goodmornings when I'm under the bar. I've tried fixing it, but no succes so far.

Thanks in advance.

It looks fine to me. Depth is borderline on a couple, and the stance may be too wide, but I can't tell from this angle. Using hips nicely.

Thanks Rip, I'll post another form check later.

Not that my opinion matters as much as Rip’s, but I thought those looked pretty good as well. On rep 2, you picked up your chest a little too early which may have contributed to the GM feeling, but you had some really good reps at a pretty big 3x5!

Hi guys, thanks for the feedback. Here's the 3x5 at 370 (5,5,3). I lowered my weight jumps from 10 to 5 pounds. It still feels like a goodmorning.
I've been cueing myself to sit back and change the back angle once I've established the correct knee position.
Here's warmup 1 and 2 + first workset

Your sets at 365 looked better.
At 370 you're trying to keep your torso too vertical at the beginning and unlocking knees before hips.
Hips go back and knees go out and forward all at the same time.
It feels like a GM because the bar comes crashing forward towards the bottom to correct for things you're doing at the beginning of the squat.

Back is too vertical, and this causes all the usual problems.

Alright, will fix it, thanks guys. I'll post my next squat 3x5 in a bit.

Hi guys, here's 375 (5,5,5). I squatted 370 for 3 sets of five last session. Forgot to film though.
It's the last set of the three. My headphones bothered me during the set so it's not the best form.
What do you guys think? How's the depth? Not sure if I have to go deeper or not.

I'm no coach,
I think you were down enough,
real hard to tell with the dark color sweats
