Good stuff Turbs! Uncle monsoon and FD are proud too

Thank you sir. Does this mean we are all going out for ice cream!?

Looks good turb! With high bar, I would try narrow stance, break at the knees and squat straight down. Hips break will follow.

I have this same problem: it feels like you are all the way down, but you are not. At that weight, you should be able to go until your hamstrings touch your calves. When they do, you are ATG and can go back up. Over time, if you practice ATG squats, you will be able to do heavier weights ATG as well. I recently did 495 lbs ATG. It was totally awesome to get that.

^3 second paused double and triples really help with ATG and out of the hole. Nice lift, WW.

Thanks for the input guys. I have noticed recently that is a lot easier to get to depth with a narrow stance.

Here's a video from yesterdays session.

Anything I need to change?
