hello, I'm a novice user of stronglifts and I've recently got to a certain weight on my squats. I really feel that I need to drop the weight because I'm just doing half squats.
my problem is I don't seem to have the flexibility at all to go past parallel, I can't even do it with zero weight, my heels always come off the ground. can I get some advice on how to fix this/what sort of stretches I can do to start to improve my hip flexibility and maybe my ankle flexibility so I achieve an atg squat?

just b urself

Put one of those slanted boards/plates under your heels or buy lifting shoes. Stretch before squatting and if it's really extreme go to a doctor to check whether there isn't some tendon/muscle that is too short

not OP, but anyone good a good stretching or mobility routine to improve squat depth?
I can't seem go past parallel
