6'7" here.

Just keep practicing. Make sure you practice going low enough, I know a lot of my fellow lank lets don't go full depth, anything in particular you are having trouble with?
>>
>>36861963
>>36861980
Widen your stance a little farther than shoulder length, suddenly squatting is super easy. That's how I do it, 6'2".

You have long legs so you need to spread them out more. Just make sure to keep your chest out, your butt out, and your knees out.
>>
>>36861996
is this low bar or high bar I can't tell

I feel like the first one is me but I worry about my depth often
>>
>>36861963
You don't, your height causes an imbalance in your quads and glutes and you just aren't flexible enough.

Stretch and yoga and shit. And be really mindful of your body. Smoke pot if you can.

I squat lowbar so wider stance. I'm 6'6 and my 1RM is 350.
>>
>>36862004
fucking this. I tried high-bar with normal stance.
It doesnt happen.
>>
>>36861996

6'3" but not a lanklet. I can't express how much lifting shoes help. Practice, and stretch your hips, hams and quads

>>36862098
good enough
>>
>>36862097
No. Use blocks(tiny like 2,5kg plates) under your heels AND get flexible.

You can do both.
>>
I'm really fuckin confused
I'm 6'3" and have no issues with squat
Are your hammies tight or something?
>>
>>36862152
Op here, I think my ankles just can't bend enough. If I try to squat like a normie I just fall on my ass.
>>
>>36861963
just put 5lbs plates under your heels and have your feet a bit wider than the manlets you see in form videos online.
I'm 6'5" and I squat lmao3pl8s.

Found the manlet who doesn't hit parallel.
>>
>>36861980
Same, but a wider stance like >>36862004 said has really helped me at least hit parallel. Granted i'm noob as fuck, so what do i know?

>>36862205
Practice with just bodyweight for a while for flexibility. Helped me a lot. Wide stance crucial too.
>>
I use high bar squat. Low bar and I feel like my shoulders are being dislocated. My arms are long, so I have a slightly wider grip.
Can't overstate the importance of flat shoes. I wear converse all stars. Squatted before in running trainers. Wobbly wobbly weebles don't fall down
>>
6'3" fag here, 400lbs ATG back squat.

Do front squats and go ATG on any kind of squat you do.
