Squat form check? Possible goodmorning?

[jeremy9710]

Hello guys, So i've been working on my squat trying to get it down, I think i've got it except I am sorta doing a goodmorning and cant seem to fix it. Any opinions would be great Thanks!

IMO regarding you are doing a low bar squat, your form looks fine. The hip drive isn't exaggerated at all, the weight looks easy, I suggest you pick a harder weight and post another form check video. Little Q I use to counter exaggerated hip drive is "Chest up"

You are pausing at the bottom. Stop that. It's causing you to start moving your hips first and then your chest follows. Use your stretch reflex to rebound back up and get the chest and ass moving back up at the same time. Think "elbows down, chest up."

Yeah, I think he has a piece of wood beneath him to tell him he hit depth!

Lose that OP you neither ready nor performing a correct box squat. develop a good habit of being caution when you hit depth by feeling.

Ya thats what the wood was for, I'll try to drop it. I was doing it without but I was having trouble getting past parrellel without my back rounding so I started using that and it seemed to help. Thanks!

^ This seriously at least for me.

If you can't swag for some chucks, get the $10 knock offs from wal-mart.

ATG (where my flexibility ends) is actually easier that stopping at some arbitrary point that I believe is deep. For me, I'm able to generate more power out of the hole and my teardrop muscles are finally taking off because of the full range of motion. Feels way easier on the knees too, damn near therapeutic.
