    How severe is the arm injury and what exactly is the injury? do you think laying off the surgery or aid may cause longer term problems?

    The injury is a broken ulnar on my left arm, being fixed with a plate and six screws

    It does ache and gives a little pain every now and again but the main problem is the soft tissue on the scare is always expanded even when i wake up in the morning. It used to get a little bigger after training but now it is 24/7

    I did go to a orthopedic in the center of London but he couldn't tell me anything

    My arm just after waking up:

    Your going to try and prep through a broken arm?
    Seems insane to me man, but if you can do it more power to you. I would hate to see you make it worse than it already is and then cause longer injury

    if it continues to swell and swell as you state something is up, and its not getting better.. Thats just my obversavation. I have delt with a broken elbow and i know how the tissue can swell and how it can impact in the future. Be cautious.

    3. I walk out to far (have been told this before)
    4. Flexibility or my body is struggling to get lower
    5. I used to do high bar then switched to low bar but today doing both i think high bar the form was better
    Bump for opinions on form

    I think your squat form looks fine. Good depth and I think the high bar position I that first set of 5 looked really solid.

    I think too many people get overly concerned with squat depth. The important thing in my opinion is do your legs really feel it when u r squatting. Are they doing most the work and not your low back? If so, then u are simulating the muscle like u want to.

    The exception to this would be training for strength or powerlifting contests. Then it's imperative you get deep enough so as to have a good lift. I never powerlifter but when I run programs like Sheiko, 5x5 or any other power routines where the goal is upping your 1RM, I place and adjustable bench behind me in the rack and I am sure to squat down until my butt barely touches it. This ensures I'm getting deep enough with each rep. When the weights get heavy people have a tendency to not go as deep, so this solves that problem.

    I think u r in good shape though.

    Just keep going man! Everything takes time. Just keep killing workouts and following the plan and you'll build those numbers. I have my eye on 405x2 squats soon, but it's taken me quite some time and a TON of squats to get here : ) We are never happy where we are, and that is exactly why we keep pushing to be better. Keep on it man.

The only other thing is that it seems like sometimes you aren't keeping your weight in your heels and it looks like you're moving forward a little. Both easy fixes.

    Form looks good, and I am certainly looking forward to seeing some hefty weights out you : )

    Glad you are liking Arnold's Encyclopedia. It was responsible for me getting into bodybuilding. I was fascinated by the content, even though it was quite outdated. I read the entire book twice and it opened me to a world that I didn't even know existed.

    All because a friend from college had it lying on his coffee table. Life changing moment for sure

    Man, keep up the great work in here. I'm like you when it comes to squats. In fact, my benching is just a tad stronger than my squatting right now (working hard to fix that). I think your form looks pretty decent, like Takeda said, stay in control of the weight and push through the heels. Takes lots of practice, that's for sure.

    Great stuff as usual in here.

    Scary stuff with the arm! Stay safe OP

    Squat looks pretty good - we could all use form work, just stick with it and practice!
