Bar path is a bit wonky as it goes forward/backward/forward on the ascent, but nonetheless, good work, OP. I struggle with tending to let the bar go forward an inch when I hit depth myself.
Would get red lights at a powerlifting meet but for basically any other purposes yeah, that's a 4pl8 squat. Congrats, anon. Even being able to do it with subpar form, you're at most a week away from being able to do it with good form, especially since you've experienced having the weight on your back now.
>basically any other purposes yeah, that's a 4pl8
the bare minimum of a squat has always been parallel. rack pulks aren't deadlifts and push presses aren't called ohp
Not comp depth but good enough if your goal is anything outside of powerlifting. Something to work on in the future, good job man. Just know that someone who can hit 4pl8 to depth is stronger than you are.
Good lift for powerlifting I guess
You are very weak at the bottom position tho. Ankles looks like they are about to give in.
I recommend you doing atg squats at least with low wait to condition your legs joints and ligaments
I just don't understand why people would want to cheat themselves of a good workout in order to say "I lifted x pl8" or whatever bragging rights. I recommend you stop ego lifting, roll back to 1 pl8, and do ATG until you are bulletproof with that form. I did this after years of muh squatting heavy to parallel, and it did wonders for my overall strength and flexibility. Work your way back up from there... it doesn't mean you have to be doing 4pl8 ATG, but if you can do 1, 2, or 3 pl8 ATG, you sure at hell will feel a lot stronger when you bump up to 4pl8, even if you only go to parallel with it.
Impressive OP. I'd go lower below the horizontal / sheer point of the knee. Don't worry about the numbers, muscles can't see how much you're lifting.
Ty for the love boys <3, I got scared of the weight so hesitated at the bottom 🙁
I'll still count it despite your heels lifting up while ascending.

wouldn't pass in powerlifting competition, would pass in gym

Lower you gay.
Valid
set the safety bars and just go for as low as you can. That's what they're there for, and you will probably surprise yourself
Would not get good lift in a meet but for all intents and purposes it's good enough imo. Invest in shoes and it will be easier to go lower naturally
This and good job man
Crease of the hip below the top of the knee. You are maybe 1 or 2 inches off from parallel. But still impressive.
>20lb plates
lmao.
bro it's kg
Dw about it unless you compete in powerlifting
Nah those are 20lb. I can tell just by looking at em.
>bro it's kg
lol so it's not even a real 4 pl8
Those are kg mutt.
Deeper gay

That's the worst form I've ever seen.
this one is accurate
>Belt
>Knee sleeves
>yuro plates
>yuro bar
>headphones
yeah, you didn't complete the lift
thats like 3 or 4" high. so no
too high but your proportions are kinda shitty for squat so whatever, but try to go lower anyway
How's depth?
I'd say you're with me on just a little too high at bottom. Excellent tightness in chest, and rise.
Up to you if you want to sacrifice ego and go a little lower with ~5kg less
looks good enough for me
like 1 cm too high
The last two reps are a bit high, I'd say the first 3 are fine
No, you’re not parallel or below. Lower the weight to 3.5pl8, squat lower, and work your way back up.
no judge in the jungl
no
dial back that ego and get there normally instead of half assing it so you can say you're in arbitrary club

First off--- just wanted to say I'm transgender. I think squatting to parallel is the best way to squat. Powerlifting rules!
Yeah it is for a 4pl8s+ 1rm imo make sure you get as much depth as you can when you train for reps though.
