Thanks John. Form wasn't good back then but I have improved on my form since then. I'll give those a shot but I'm not sure if I can do them at the moment as I'm recovering from a ruptured hamstring tendon. I'll definitely start doing them when I can though so thanks for that tip.

Congrats on the PR. In regards to form, your adductors are most likely tight, which causes the "caving in" effect of the knees. Search "Cossack Squats" here on youtube. Incorporate a couple sets of those with bodyweight into your warm-up and it should help in that regard. Keep up the good work!

Thanks. Yeah my squat form definitely wasn't the best in this video. I've improved some and I'm working on keeping the knees out.

Really good depth. I dont like your little hiccup in the bottom of your movement, and it is also scaring me how you let your knees cave inward on the way up.

I've been working on my squat form, it's still not great but it isn't wretched.

Poor form, don't lean forward on the concentric portion of the lift - you are relying on your back not your legs
