ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / squat form check and feet turned out while squatting
« on: September 23, 2012, 03:32:33 pm »
Hey Lance,
Do you mind taking a look at my squat vid. This is as deep as I can go. It's weird because I think I am doing it ATG style but on camera it looks like my hip crease barely breaks parrallel. I have on flat soled shoes so I use 10 pound plates as a heel lift. I also have to turn my feet out to a 45 degree angle to get down that low, my knees still track over my toes; but I'm wondering is this optimal or anything like that? Should I strive to have my feet pointing more straight forward? by the way I'm 6'3. I just wanna make sure this would be an optimal squat form while I strive for a double body weight squat.
any thoughts would be much appreciated man, thanks for your time.
