  • I pretty much agree with Xplodz.

    I'd also add that promoting upward rotation of the hips (i.e having the butt jut oout) as you lower yourself is a very bad idea if the athlete eventually wishes to move on to weighted squats.

    If you do weighted squats with such a position you will induce tremendous shearing forces on the spine and you are at great risk of injuring your back.

  • The knees are allowed to go slightly over the toes due to some body proportions.

    And going lower than parallel is better for your knees than going to parallel because the knee and leg is at it's most stable leverage position when it is either fully extended or fully bent.

  • Awesome, thanks for uploading
