i wouldnt lock out your knees at the top... dont want to end up like that girl on the leg press with her leg bending backwards

also keeps tension on your legs.

if you go any heavier wear a belt

lol this.

Also, I had the same thought about the knees. I cringe when I see people lock out their elbows and knees like that. Nothing serious may happen, but it can be aggitating. My knees and elbows hurt if I do that shit.

If this were at a meet your lifts wouldn't pass at that depth, need to go below your hip crease. But not sure if you care about that.

Not sure if blind.

That's obviously below parallel. Form looks good to me

Not sure if stupid or noob.



This is correct squat depth, hip crease has to be below parallel.
