ooh I dunno - you ass didnt go below your feet!

Looks like good technique to me (lower than I go!)

fufu · 03-10-2007, 08:01 AM

Yes, looks nice and deep.

**P-funk** · 03-10-2007, 08:13 AM

a) good depth

b) why the fuck are you squatting to (what looks like) near failure without safties?

c) put some shoes on. Your arch is flattening out when you squat and after a few years of that your knees are going to let you know.

Def good depth, your right foot is turned out much more than your left, methinks.

why can't you squat with shoes on?

How can someone spot you if they aren't standing behind you?

you are a moron.

Diablo1990 · 03-10-2007, 11:02 AM

It doesn't feel right at all

I didn't need a spotter so much and I think my friend could put the camera down and run over if I got stuck because it's not much weight and I could at least hold it there if im down

your an asshole

**P-funk** · 03-10-2007, 11:08 AM

I know I am an asshole.

Diablo1990 · 03-10-2007, 11:17 AM

What a surprise hit! Always helpful!

So the camera man is the spotter? Oh god, I gotta see this shit when I get home..

Diablo1990 · 03-10-2007, 02:13 PM

hahaha I don't video tape something I need to be spotted for unless I have more than 1 guy

I gotta chip in here - what P-funk doesnt know about this stuff aint worth knowing. Its worth taking the advice of people who have been doing this for years and years. Just thought I should say.

Duncans Donuts · 03-10-2007, 05:28 PM

That's a little deeper than I go. Your right foot is more externally rotated. Get a spotter dude.

AKIRA · 03-10-2007, 07:29 PM

It might be cuz of the angle of the camera...

P, what do you mean about the arch flattening out?

His arch flattens out. IE, his foot does not stay neutral.
