Terminator		150 kg x 5 Squat	23-10-2011 @ 14:21
jerking is obviously great, Member 2521, 4714 posts SQ 235, BP 160, DL 290 685.0 kgs @ 111kgs UnEq	I'm just looking for a bit of form critique really, I've made decent progress on my squats recently, but do these reps look a little slow to anyone? Time to drop the weight 10% maybe? Thanks.

So I wasn't really expecting much from this video. That being said, I'm never afraid to speak my mind, and to be honest you surprised me with these squats mate. Buried into the floor, quite smooth, looked strong. Looked a little ragged around the edges on a couple of reps, but presumably it's a 5RM, so understandable. Fair play buddy, well done.

Man up and have a fuckin coffee Member 2086, 9717 posts SQ 340, BP 252.5, DL 300 892.5 kgs @ 158kgs UnEq	get the bar a lot further down your back and keep your head up

Whats the best way to build back strength that translates well into squatting? Good mornings? I've been focusing on keeping a lot tighter in my squats since my last form check, I even tried a belt but found it more of a hinderence if anything. Yep, more like the last 2 reps actually but I wanted them pretty bad!
