Maybe more that how I can get my knees to point more outside? I think my knees point too much forward at the moment.

high bar you sort of are with low bar you look down a little more.
Op you should just adjust position until you find the most powerful and strong one without pain.

Increase flexibility.

knees pointing forward past your toes isnt a bad thing. look at high level olympic lifters. its mostly due to ankle flexibility and body proportions

unless youre getting knee pain, you shouldnt worry

10 minutes of slav squatting a day.
I'm serious

>>40528067
If you mean a more functional squat - one where your range of motion is deep without sacrificing your spinal neutrality, then you need to stretch your hips, hamstrings, and ankles so that your flexibility in those areas is increased. It will take a while, but will be worth it OP.

I think my hip flexibility is the key here is there any good stretches routines to make them more flexible?
>>
>>40528067
Depends on your hip anatomy.
I personally squat best with my feet shoulder with apart and my toes 45 degrees out.
There's a guy at my gym that squats extremely wide, there's another one that squats extremely narrow.
All three of us squat >405lbs.
Everyone is different in that regard.

Puts a lot of pressure on your lower back so you'll have to wear a belt. But point your toes out and keep your center of gravity right. Also stop asking autistic questions
