Post by: Raptor on May 29, 2011, 02:54:23 pm: I felt it was lower than quarter... 1/3 would fit to what I thought.

Thats my thought as well. So somewhere in between 1/4 and 1/3 at least.

Post by: Dreyth on May 29, 2011, 09:07:42 pm: If full is only breaking parallel, than that's 1/3 squat.
If full is atg, then that's 1/4 squat.

Decide on "full squat" first!

Ok but if we look at ROM Im actually almost doing a 1/2 squat. Looking at the distance between the hooks, my ROM is 3 spaces in the partial and 6 spaces + a bit in the full.

Post by: Raptor on May 30, 2011, 02:18:22 am: Exactly, when I first saw that, I was like "hey that's pretty much a half squat". That's definitely lower than 1/4. 1/4 is barely moving at all.

Post by: Kingfish on May 30, 2011, 02:01:23 pm: angle of knee for me determines the squat..
0 -full
90 -half
135 - quarter.

FLANDER - u suck at taking a depth check pic. :uhhhfacepalm:

its a quarter.. could be 1/3 but massive leg is creating illusion of more depth.

I have tiny legs. ;D And I think 1/3 by your definition and almost 1/2 by dreyth's definition.

Well 0 is impossible. Your thigh would be in the same location as your tibia :P
