I think it is important for lifters to realize that some pelvic nutation is unavoidable. Mel Siff stated that mild nutation is natural and should be ignored. The problem is when the nutation becomes severe. Then it is a problem and should be addressed. Even in this video, the guy has some nutation when he wall squats. Actually, in all his videos nutation is present.

So don't freak out if you have some mild nutation. Just make sure it doesn't become excessive.

I heard that you're supposed to keep your back straight; is this misinformation?

What happens if I round my UPPER back slightly? I hold the bar a bit higher than what he's doing, is it normal? I'm doing full squats and I'm not experiencing any back pain.

Mark Rippetoe would disagree, so that is not such a clear cut issue.
