How Deep is your Squat???

Re: How Deep is your Squat???

I dont know how deep I squat? Maybe some day I will watch myself squat and see. Seriously though I go below parallel but thats all I know. I also know I cant squat low enough to touch my heels, lower calves, etc. because my legs are to big. My legs arent that big (IMO) but they only bend so far.

You should record yourself squatting. If you aren't training with others that is the only way to see what you're doing right and wrong. Even with my crew I record my lifts so we can look at them afterwards.

So should I just do an average stance all the time then?

Your idea of wide is what? A lil wider than shoulder width? or is it actually sumo stance? If it's just a lil wider than shoulder width that is regular stance and just make sure you're pushing your butt back, knees out, chest up and sit back (not down).

Ugh, I hate you all, I now have to go no lower than just at parallel due to a back injury from swinging for the fences in softball
