    Hey everyone, Kit and I have been discussing depth on the (barefooted) back squat. Having seen the first photo below, Kit suggested I squat deeper. I gave it a crack, and managed the depth seen in the following photo. Not far from a full squat, but not quite there yet. Kit's response: This is significantly better. Only improving your ankle flexibility (and actively using it to pull your knees a bit more forward while you get deeper) and keeping that slight extension in the spine will improve this, and both of these take time. Try not to go too heavy too soon; perfect form means a safer, deeper, more effective squat. Strength comes in time. I couldn't get past thighs parallel without a butt wink 6 months ago, so happy with the progress. Any others working on weighted squat depth?
