Squat technique

[Justin Ansarfi]

I have been focusing on depth. I am not sure if this depth is adequate. I have narrowed my stance, focusing on knees forward and out to allow my torso to clear the hip joint. I moved the bar a 1/2 inch higher on the traps to allow the mid foot position to maintained with a more vertical spine and thus a deeper squat.

Thanks coaches!

A more vertical spine does not ensure a deeper squat, as any of the recreational federations demonstrate every time they have a meet. If these are not deep, they are very close. Need a better camera angle.

Thanks for your time. I will post different angles next session.

For the record, I agree the butt-hole is not an organ.

Depth is fine on these.
