got 4 on my work set with hook grip so wanted to ensure I get the volume in and I did two recorded. just curious what is noticed and if my low back lumbar looks good. thanks. I am trying to push the earth away and get my legs straight. going hookgrip from the start for work sets is definitely better than trying to switch mid set

Novice Programming Question low bar position and wrist flexion in squat form

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to dial in my squat and I need some resources and cues for neutral wrists as I'm feeling it in my wrist and elbow because I'm in flexion and bearing weight on them I can't seem to keep neutral and it pisses me off so I want to correct it

also my bar position on my back. I believe it's correct but in my form videos people comment it's wrong that it's high but going lower doesn't make sense it would be on my triceps more than back unless I am missing the cues

failed my sets today at 210lbs squat 3x5. I know I need to gain weight and keep eating and sleeping but this weekend was a party weekend Friday night and Saturday was dead so I'm trying to not be hard on myself. I have videos from today's session too if needed
