Try foam rolling the shit out of your hips and ITB before you start. Also a little bit of cardio or light stretching before you squat wouldnt go amiss. It sounds like a flexibility problem as your bench and deadlift are fairly solid.
Just did my second leg day yesterday, my max on sunday was 240x1 and yesterday i managed 270x2 so it’s goin up lol, lets see what next week has to offer! I also did front squats the same day and i can go ass to grass with no problem at like 220 which i didn’t think was too bad. Is this normal for some one to find the front squat easier than the back squat?

I think my form is pretty good, but i’m guessing everyone thinsk that!
Bar is about 4’’ below my neck, feet around 20 degrees, and i think i sit back enough.
It just doesn’t feel natural. I’ve got a feeling its something to do with my hip mobility maybe.
I think i’ve got a problem with my lower leg position. I don’t mean when squatting i mean all the time. When my knee is straight my feet are externally rotated about 15 degrees and i’m not sure if this normal or not. I read somewhere that if they lateral hamstring is more developed than the medial ham this causes the lower leg to be externally rotated.
Any ideas if this could cause a problem with my squat?[/quote]
Hip subluxation.
Do you see a chiropractor?
