Not at all clear whose "people" committed the attack right now. If we're going to speculate, yes, it is not like it couldn't have been a group of radical BLM sympathizers with military training. But...

bb.com put up a good article on buttwink that addresses all the key points in this thread.

No. A belt will not help you control your own body.. that is what you are fighting against.

On squats, a couple things:

-- you have the bar in high bar position (on the traps) but you are also trying to hold it like it is a low bar squat. You may have heard that you need to keep your...

You do not need to worry about your wrists at all. Keeping the wrist straight is a low bar cue. Your vids in the first post looked like a pretty good starting point to me.

Elbows don't need to...

While it looks "better", it still does not look like you are completely tight in the midsection to me. Keep in mind you need to brace the abs, and then also engage the lower back as you sit back. ...

In your case specifically OP, you don't have a tight core, thus you are unable to transfer the force of your hips directly to the bar. I shouldn't be able to see any independent movement in your...

In response to the last article kaleida posted, IMO "chest up" is not wrong... that's not the right way to look at it. Too much lower back arch is definitely a big issue to be concerned with, but...

Stooping forward is okay. It's not my preference but other people do it as a way of forcing themselves to break at the hips. You will want your feet under you when the weight starts getting really...

What you need to do is keep your chest up (same cue as in the squat). Ie you want to lift the rib cage while bent over and extend your hips backward, such that you are lengthening your spine. Doing...

You look stooped over with an exaggerated arch in your lower back when you are setting up to squat. I get the sense you are trying to emphasize the idea of "breaking at the hips", but it's clear to...

Stretching your hip flexors won't do anything for your squat flexibility and will instead just lead to more frustration. Instead, stretch your hip extensors-- ie glutes and hamstrings-- as well as...

Doesn't look too bad. You're going down way too fast though. Keep it under control.

Obviously the fact that you have short achilles tendons is a big issue for squatting. You will not be able to squat unless you are able to increase the range of motion at the ankle joint, full stop....

For now, plates under heels is fine since you are using light weights. For the long run you should be working on your ankle mobility.

For deadlift, first and foremost, you need to make sure you...

It's pretty good overall, but it looks to me like you are hyperextending your back slightly. Make sure you are keeping your abs tight and this ought to help you keep a neutral spine.

That's normal... it's pretty much impossible to deadlift with your shoulders pulled back. What matters is that you lift the chest and ribcage in order to lengthen the spine and establish an arch in...

You have a bad habit of "rocking" into the lift before each rep. It's causing you to set up with your hips too low every time--- thus you have to start the lift by bringing your hips up so that you...

Probably better if you joined a gym! Start with just the 45 lb bar, then add weight progressively. The bodyweight exercises you are doing will not do much specifically for your butt. They really...

What the heck is a squat challenge and does it involve a barbell with weight on it? If not, learn how to squat with one. You'll see much better results that way.

Your other issues need to be...
