Interested in this because of some threads I saw around lately.
http://imgur.com/dW42le6 - this is more or less how deep I go on my squats. I'm not sure if you can call them ATG squats, but I try to go as deep as I can.

looks like your butt might be winking a little bit. try widening your stance and tighten up a bit. ATG doesn't literally mean ass to the grass it just means dont be a parallel squatting pussy
I would post my stats but then everyone would see my squat stat crew
its not like i don't train legs my squat just sucks crew
now everyone is gonna ask about my squat crew
my deadlift is kind of okay crew
edit: jk don't ask about my deadlift either crew

Don't go that low if you can't keep a neutral spine imo
You can't force knowledge into a dumbass any more than you can force sight into a blind man.
When the world breaks your legs you go and beat it with your crutch.

ATG is a horrible over used term that's not relevent. When are you ever squating on grass? That's why I squat DTF, dink to floor.
But in all seriousness your depth is dependent on your leverages. Your depth is good if say correcting your position in the bottom is more important than more depth.sub to my youtube for more videos of me lifting heavy things : www.youtube.com/user/civilizedmurderer
best lifts(kg):
back squat 250, front 200
clean 179 pw clean 165
snatch 140 pw snatch 122.5
c&J 179 pw c&j 160
push press 155 strict press 120
bench 175
best comp total 316
