    I just made a huge deload and worked on mobility to hit the appropriate depth. I’ll be thankful for any recommendations

    stop trying to keep your chest up. Direct your gaze a few feet in front of you on the floor and keep it there. Knees out to hit depth. If you are having trouble keeping your knees out I would assume your stance is too wide.

    Youre probably right about that stance too wide I’ll try to fix it. Also I’ll put more emphasis on hip drive. Thanks

    You're too upright here too, and your wrists are extended rather than in a neutral position. Getting them neutral with a narrow grip will help the thoracic tightness you need to get leaned over more (point your nipples to the floor).

    I can see clearly that I made some improvements in my back angle (now its more horizontal) but simultaneously I failed to reach appropriate depth.

    You're an inch high by the last rep.

    You have improved your upright posture but you have failed to push your knees out following your toes. IN my opinion. Your femurs are coming in contact with your pelvis blocking you from hitting proper depth.

    No one's actual femurs come into contact with their actual pelvises anywhere except the femoroacetabular joint.
