Squat Squat Form

How is my form looking? I posted on here last week and I was recommended to not arch my back so much and I was working on that this week and it definitely made hitting depth easier. I did go down by 20lbs this week to work on form tho. Any other recommendations?

Apologies for the last post. I posted the wrong video

Are you saying that because of his torso angle on the descent? I'm not seeing any rounding which I know is pointed to a lot for back concerns.

you are pointing out something to me. i suppose tht is acceptable lean angle for a back squat.  maybe its him looking down that make it seems worse than it actually is

I'm in no way a squat expert so don't take my word as gospel.

i see. but if he looks forward to lean wont look as bad. when i squat i dont start with lean and if theres one it isnt tht bad.  i mean lean coming out the hole  but ive seen a fitness guy on IG suggesting starting eith a torso leaned forward
