    Hi all,

    Here is my last set of 315x5. I believe I have cleaned up most everything from this previous thread Squat Form Check.

    Please let me know if there is anything wrong that I am not seeing.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hey John
    Stance is a hair wide here. Bring it in a bit.
    What's going on with the two-stage start? You seem to be unlocking the hips and knees, waiting, then starting the squat. Get everything locked out at the top, start and finish from there.
    Start and stay midfoot. You seem to be rocking around on your feet, starting on your heels and shifting to your toes. Lifting shoes may help.
    Finally, control your descent a bit more. You're dive-bombing into the bottom a bit and it's going to be hard to stay tight for the turnaround.
    Film at a bit more of an angle next time.
    Good luck!

    Hi Pete,

    The two-stage start is due to really focusing on making sure I engage my lower back per the previous thread which has seemed to help, but I will work on making it all one smooth motion.

    Thanks for the tips, I really appreciate it
