is the depth fine?

are my knees coming to far forward at the start?

any muscles or excersises i can work on to improve on that sticking point (odvious where it is)? weak hammies maybe?

thanks again

EDIT- yes strong shorts (makes me feel a bit tighter)
yes strong music (good tune imo)

Good squat, nice back arch. Only tiny thing is you might be breaking with your knees too early, but it didn't give you any problems.

Smack.

Looks a little bit above parallel; you'd have to break parallel in a (reputable) powerlifting competition. A good weight. Back looks nice and arched, no good morninging out of the hole, very short shorts.

I agree I think your knees are breaking just a tad early, rock your hips and butt back a little more then let your knees break. You might wanna check your flexibility in your hamstrings to better the begining of your downward movement.

For muscles to work on I would just got with the basics hamstrings, quads and lower back. sqauts deadlifts and leg press heavy and hard.

Next video try a different angle...Happy lifting!
