Squat critique

trying to sort out my form on these, i'm a skinny f**ker who hasnt lifted properly before so im trying to sort that out too!
this is the most weight at the most reps ive done, i know they arent deep, but would like any pointers on how best to push on from here, when i do them they are 3x5 at the moment, today was 80kx5 90kx5 100kx5, the 80;s & 90's were better, the 100's were as low as i could go and as as heavy, will stick these weights out now until form is alot better, wasnt the greatest filming, but heels are mainly rooted, even if it does look like im rolling onto toes a fair bit

bollox!
should be sorted now?

Some tips that may prove helpful

keep your chest up
get tighter
break at the hips and sit back
push knees out
work on depth

Maybe try different stance also, bit wider may help

looks like you might have issues with the fixed safety bars on that rack once you start hitting a good depth

cheer Adam, just by looking at your avi i'd say a fair bit wider!
what do you mean by
"get tighter
break at the hips and sit back "

with depth i'll move to rack next to that one, has catchers you can set height on

Your technique is the way a lot of ppl squat when they begin (myself included). There are too many factors that come into a good squat to go through them all. Just squat. Lots. But....really make an effort to get to at least parallel (drop weight if you have to) and you should try to prevent your knees from travelling too far forward over your toes. You will achieve this by sitting into the lift more (drop your arse back and not straight down).

Instead of squating by bending your knees push your arse back

fair enough, i think im doomed to fail unless i train with someone who knows how tbh, but i'll try doing piss low weights for a while while i work on technique
thanks mate

Find someone with experience that can give you a lesson, it will cost you but you'll be glad you did it. I've trvelled over 100 miles on two occassions to train with two different guys from this forum, and I picked up more in those hours than I have in all the time I've spent reading and looking for help on the internet.

by get tighter i mean make sure your whole body is braced/tensed and prepared for the squat, there's quite a bit of wobble in your body while you squat, doing things like tensing your core/lats etc will make you more stable

by breaking at the hips i mean that instead of your first part of movement being to move your knees start sitting back instead

something that helped me out a fair bit when i started to squat by breaking with the hips first/sitting back, was to arch my lower back and stick my ass outwards

i actually squat wider than that now, it'll be trial and error to find what stance works best for you

Where do you live? if you can make it down to Swindon your welcome to come have a squat session with me

Whilst I'm not the best squatter by any means, i should be able to help you out a fair bit

thanks for the pointers mate, i'll try to get some focus going, im only in cardiff, so not far at all really!

get the bar across your shoulders too

Plenty of useful advice has been given already, but my general pointers would be:
1. Take a slightly wider stance - you should be sitting down between your legs. At the moment you appear to be doing a bit of a concertina squat
2. Go lower. You are missing out on a lot of benefits by cutting depth.

Look up 'squat rx' on youtube for some decent tutorials.

Best of luck.
