You're listening to wrong people, stop taking advice from random gym goers and post your form on an actual powerlifting forum.

I'm sure if he was wearing tighter pants it would be obvious it's below parallel. Do you not have a brain?



You don't need to post on a gaming forum then. You already got all the confirmation you need.

I actually did already. This is from startingstrength.com. http://startingstrength.com/resources/forum/showthread.php?t=57302

A SS coach never mentioned anything about depth problems. Also posted on bb.com exercise section. No one except you has mentioned anything about depth. I think I'll trust the SS coach.

Not below parallel, not even parallel. Just letting you know, you can drop the ego and face the facts or just keep doing it the way you do. And BB.com is not the best place to ask about form, you have so many different kinds of lifters there and majority care about hypertrophy training. If you posted on somewhere like /r/powerlifting or even /r/fitness you would be told the truth.

trololololol

he has only been working out for 7 weeks... i've seen so many new people hurt themselves increasing the weight that fast

just my opinion but do w/e you want

That screenshot isn't the bottom of his squat. You can clearly see him dipping below parallel.



D'oh

Should've known better than to respond. Guess he got me.

By the way, here is Mark Rippetoes squat depth diagram.



This is you.



See the difference?

The SS coach (certified by Mark Rippetoe himself) has already responded on the thread I linked you, and said it's good form. That screenshot you took is not at the instant where my squat is at it's lowest point.

Like someone said above, I think its more of a clothing issue. If I wore a skin tight singlet, I'm sure the crease would be more apparent that it's below parallel.



I wasn't really looking for depth advice honestly, didn't think anyone would actually say depth was an issue here. Just wanted more opinions on bar path perhaps.
