This thread is dedicated to those who wish to post videos for critique and are looking for help with their form/technique.
DISCLAIMER
Here, I think Mark Rippetoe says it best - " Heads up: all videos I critique in this forum must remain posted as long as the thread exists. I am not here for your personal use, and when I comment on a video of your technique, I'm really showing everybody else what you're doing wrong. If this bothers you, don't post the video. But if you do post the video and I comment on it, it stays up. If this doesn't work I'll have to stop commenting on videos. This would be the loss of a good free coaching opportunity, but less work for me, so be nice to your fellow Q&Aers."
Post away.

That looks really good! Try turning to your right or left so that the tip of the bar is facing the camera and film it from the side.

Looks good Randy.
Obviously Im not a professional but heres my comments:
1) depth looks good from this angle, but it might be SLIGHTLY just parallel
2) knees seem wobbily. i ran into this when i tried the low bar approach. you might be losing some drive out of the hole
other than that, looking good.
belt looks great and you back stays night and rigid.

I think everything here looks great, only thing I can say is from what I know about squating you would want to keep your head up (eyes in the sky), your head seemed to be down. Idk if its a style or form thing you do, it just poped into my head when watching. Great lift, everythings perfect. Originally Posted by toprockcantbstoppd

When I do this row on a bench I always seem to have trouble placing my opposite leg (the one not on the bench bent). I think I might start doing them right off the rack like this. You seem to have more stability. Originally Posted by DEEPER KEMICAL

"Looking at the sky" is the worst, yet most common, fault of people when they squat. I understand that many people have been taught to squat that way, most often by people who have never themselves been taught how to squat properly, or themselves performed a proper squat. Looking up causes a number of shitty things to happen: Originally Posted by tommy_guns
1. Your cervical spine, and the discs that comprise that region, or under tremendous strain. This could lead to headaches, or worst, bulging/herniated discs.
2. It puts your torso at more of an incline, which ends up transferring force from your posterior muscles (hams, glutes) to you anterior quadriceps. For a Back squat, you want to engage the hips and glutes as much as possible.
3. It limits your depth and gives you a false sense of depth.
These are just the ones that come to mind right now. ideally, and I've debated many people on this, you want to fix your focus on a point ON THE FLOOR about 5-10 feet in front of you. I tend to look close about 4-5 feet. Most problems that I have to fix with people who come into my facility to learn to squat can be fixed by adjusting their focal point away from "up" and more to "down". Works every time. Try it. You'll add at least 10 pounds to your squat.Everything Else is CounterFit!
