Low Bar Squat Form Check

My first time really trying to squat low bar. This took some of the pressure off of my injured knees, but not all of it.

and yeah, belt should be used only to beat your old records in a single squat. otherwise you weaken your "natural" belt which is your core by disabling them during the squatting.
-
improve your hip dive, you dont use the strength of your ass at all.

Very good squat my friend, but can i ask why your using a belt? If you have a lower back problem then thats fair enough, but otherwise i'd strong recommending not using one dude.
-
@BarBenderStone Hm. Like one side moves forward and the other side doesn't? Sounds like I have/had a muscle imbalance. Very possible. I was twisting a bit on deadlifts at the time, because I used a mixed grip and didn't alternate hands.
As for knee drift, I assume the only fix is more rearward hip travel to keep the shins more upright. And I don't know if I can get my hips any further back without doing a GM. I think cutting the squat at parallel, and spreading the knees is my answer.

Also, you're doing good to keep a tight back, but there's no need to push your elbows up like that. All that does is strain your wrists and forearms and make it harder to keep your chest up. Try depressing your scapulae instead of elevating them.
Hope that helps!

why do you want to use a low bar placement if your not going to widen the grip and your stance to focus more on glute and hip strength? your already mainly focusing on weight lifted rather than total strength gain by going low bar so why not go full throttle with it?

The stance is notably wider than my normal, high bar stance. It was slightly wider than shoulder width. Anything more seems to put too much stress on my hips. I'll be playing around with the grip.
Anyway, my reason for going low bar isn't to move more weight, it's to try to take some pressure off of my knees. They're injured and heavy high bar squats won't allow for recovery.
