I was speaking in general terms.
But IMHO, knees should never be over the toes. In doing that the tib/fib brakes that vertical plane.
It is one of those things of perfection that may never be achieved but must always be worked to.

hey bro,
haven't seen your old vids but form looks good. I agree with someone that kind of looks like a goodmorning. I was also taught to start with hips moving back to initiate good form but sometimes a person can go overboard and do it to much. Theres a balance. With the back rounding, stretch more. Don't know the name of the stretch, but just sit ATG and use elbows to force knees outward which will put pressure on the groin region.

Do you feel squatting hits your quads hard??? everyone is different and how you squat may not work for someone else or same true of the opposite. If your quads are growing and feeling it from your squats then keep going. Dont freak out about the form, just try and improve.
Another good squatting tip:-
Place your feet right up against a wall - No weight, cross your arms over your chest and squat down to parallel. If you are leaning too far forward with your squat (which you are a little) this can help bigtime. Do this followed by front squats and you will naturally squat with more of an upright torso. Train your abs and lower back more too man. A strong core is key for big deads and squats.
Good luck son. Keep going. You are on your way!

Good squats imo. 99% better then the form seen an any "Fitness Center" I've been too. Now you need to hit 405x3
Are those airforce 1s you're squatting in? If they are just reg nike airs you should invest in some chuck taylors to squat in.
Good idea about that change in footwear. I prefer Asics wrestling shoes. But I used to wrestle so I am biased.
