Lower weight, work on form, increase weight gradually

>>40198613
It just feels wrong though, I'm getting back pain at lmao 1 pl8, there's no way I could sustain that form and go up in weight

>>40198594

Deload and squat lower

i might suggest trying low bar squat

or alternatively, drop the weight a bit, focus on keeping th elower back tight, and avoiding "butt wink" where your spine curves while at the bottom of the rep

>>40198594
wall squats
>>40198622
That's because your abs are weak, also if you fell for rippetoe memeing it also means you're probably looking down, which you shouldn't.

>>40198594
Try sitting back further into it.

>>40198594
>my squat is hitting the correct muscles, help me hit my glutes in one of the least effective glute exercises.

If you want an arse, do bb hip thrusts and bb glute bridges. Those are number 1 and 2 in the entire world for your bum.

If those seem too gay, then do good mornings.

If that seems too gay, then do deadlifts.

Sldl, and rdl are also better at building glutes than low bar squats. So are bulgarian split squats. So are lunges.

What this guy is saying, if you are high bar nothing is wrong at all.

>Squatting in front of the rack
Is no one else going to mention this

>>40199029
Eh why not, it's easier to bail outside the rack than inside.

>>40199038
>it's easier to bail outside the rack than inside.

Literally what

>>40198594
try squatting just the bar, maybe a plate, and do it barefoot.

Your hips may also be tight. Stretch them before workout and before bed

>>40198594
First of all, why are you squatting outside of the rack?

Explain yourself!

>>40199916

He's squatting high bar so in that case its easier to roll the bar off your back than dump it into the safeties and risk breaking or warping the damn thing.

This is not a good idea with lowbar though.

I'm in far greater control if I just dump the bar behind me and walk forward than if I try to dump it on the safety bars, might be because I can't set the safety bars to a level that is just right.

Could also be that I'm just too used to using competition racks anyway.

>>40198594
looks good

try benching 5x5

No fucking shit Sherlock

>>40198594
Low bar squat with light weight onto a bench or chair that is almost in line with where your knees bend.

Do this for a 3-5 sets before you start your sets with heavy weight. It will teach you how to sit into the weight, rather than balancing on and pushing off with the balls of your feet. You want to sit with the weight and push up with your heels.

Anyway, do enough bench squats with light weight until that form just becomes a habit.

>>40198594
Widen your stance.
You should be able to place your toes against a wall and squat down.

Wasnt it said several times all over the internet that there's nothing wrong with knees over toes?

Depending on your proportions, you might even need it to squat to depth

>>40201306
How does this man's knees not explode immediately in this position?

If you want to target the posterior chain instead of quads, you need to do low bar squats. The bar should sit on top of your lats instead of your neck. Go to the art of manliness channel on jewtube for a nice squat tutorial. That's where I learned when I was doing starting strength

This >>40198594
There's no way to maintain fairly vertical/upright torso without
A falling backwards
B knees tracking over your toes
C some ridiculous outwards pointing knee angle
D extremely short femurs

Your form looks completely okay from the pic.

This is ideal and why Boris prescribes wall squats

Sheiko is a pl coach doe. Not everything he says is applicable to all the areas of strength training.

Interesting point nonetheless.

>>40198594

The bottom position of your squat is literally fucking fine.

Bailing is better than safety bars

>>40201354
It's a fast shoot camera, he is doing a snatch so his knees aren't holding the weight, the momentum he used to lift the bar and get under it decreases the pressure in them
