Squat form check

[grmn]

Hi Mr. Rip,

please have a look at my squat. I have a problem with shifting the balance forward on the heavy sets. Maybe my back is too horizontal?

Thanks for your time,

Look, you assholes, FIX YOUR VIDEOS BEFORE YOU POST THEM, so that I don't have to hurt my neck rotating 90 degrees. This squat is not too bad really. Here is a cue I have stumbled upon recently that might help your slight balance issue: visualize the bar riding up and down in a slot that is centered right over the mid-foot. If you think about keeping the bar right over the middle, things usually improve markedly.
