Wasn’t sure which place to post this but since I’m asking for advice, rebuilding squat form, this seems ok place. Just seeking feedback on squat form. Been reading some articles and doing some practice exercises. In particular there is a Waterbury article about doing wall squats where you face the …

Looks decent. Good depth, doesn’t turn into a good morning. Hi-bar or low-bar?

Take a small deload Add ab wheel to your program. Your mid is your weak point. What program are you doing?
