    Aug 24th final Squat set 370# - YouTube

    There is sound from the fan and from music in background.

    Any advice would be appreciated as I drive the weight back up for my lifts. Thanks

    Hey.
    You could narrow your stance a little and turn the toes out. Then send your hips back as soon as you start and get leaned over a bit more so you can keep everything midfoot and get a better rebound off the hammies.

    Also, I'd get a better belt that isn't tapered.

    I meant to write in my original post that a dominion strength belt has been ordered. I am just waiting for it to arrive.

    Noise from music, fan and a grasshopper in background. Got that new belt smell.

    Weight 285-290lbs

    Lifts not filmed thus far are bench 245x5x3, deadlift 470x5 (both today), press 205x get 15 as clean as possible reps.

    Any advice would be appreciated. Again thanks

    It's really difficult to judge your depth with that camera angle. Difficult to see other stuff too. You have this quirk of lifting, then ducking your head before you start each squat. It might help to make a mark on the wall to fix your eye-gaze on. Once you set your back, everything from the C1 to the coccyx should stay that way.

    Depth is sus on the last couple.
    Narrow up a little more and get the toes out. Then get your knees out harder. Then stop lifting your head and chest out of the bottom. Keep your tits at the ground and your chin down on the way up.
