Seeing as my old account got deleted, I made a new one (same name though - StuckintheAiir).
Here's a video of two reps of squatting from today:

sorry about the quality, the video jumps a bit, I recorded it off an iPhone 2g which isn't meant for recording video
weight: 225x2 w/10s rest @ 130.2lb

ooooooooooh LOL
two new vids from yesterday (same cam, it skips around sometimes):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrC3O9v1Mb0
Push Press: is that too much knee bend? I tried to stop going too low, but that's how it 'feels' right. Pullups were are kinda spazzy lol....dips cam angle was really bad, might get another vid later.
About the chinups btw, is my lower body leaning in too much? My torso kinda naturally contracts and makes my legs move foward.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SykgMFd_uw
I move around a lot on my exercises...never noticed that before lol. First time doing SL pogos, they were tough as hell, got like 6" off ground.
the audio wasn't synced with vid, so I added some music

the first rep is a little more knee bend than you want on the push press, keep your weight back on your heels more, and bend the knees 4 inches. dont sit back. Imagine setting the bar across your shoulders, and you want to take a very short, powerful dip, and "throw" it up past your forehead.
On the chin ups keep your shoulder blades pulled back and down more, and think about pulling with your ELBOWS instead of your hands. The lats are a big strong muscle group if you use them right.
Great view of the dips lol.
On the single and double leg pogos, pull your toes up in the air, that will give you more pop each time you hit the ground and reduce the gct.
Good work, looks like youre real close to being able to dunk on that 9'2 or whatever it was.

Thanks man, one thing that really helps me is foam rolling my it bands and hip flexors; those areas are always extremely tight for me. Without foam rolling, I always felt pressure around my hips/upper quad area when I was deep. For keeping the torso upright...really don't know what to say, I guess I got lucky; I watched a ton of form videos and just worked my way up to the form I have now. It should feel much more like a compound movement: hips and shoulders should rise simultaneously.

Just gonna update...been a while hah. So weaaaak now (lower bodywise)

commented in your journal already, but you noticed it: you're not keeping a rigid line from your shoulders to your knees. try keep that line up top by squeezing your glutes hard, then just accept that you won't be able to do a full rep without catching yourself on your hands. so catch yourself on your hands. i could pump out GHR reps all day leading with my butt but if i really focus on form i can barely get two. it's much, much harder.
