I'm still not sure I hit parallel with many of these reps...but I am getting closer and under more control. I plan to do something similar to this every week...

I can tell that I am still leaning too far fwd AND I am not taking the bar low enough on my back. I also can not grip out wide YET...but should have that fixed by next week!!!

405 1

Very nice!

Good work. The only one that looks suspect for parallel is 405 #2

Cheers,

i agree with scotsman, but it looks pretty dam close to me.

still a hell of a job tho =)

Thanks...

So you are saying that the 2nd rep with 405 looked deep enough?

I always thought that the top of hip crease had to be inline with the top of the knee to be called parallel as far as powerlifting goes

Judging from the pics, your about an inch or two off that

I feel the same way. I am still having confidence, bar placement, and stance issues. All of these are hurting my depth I do believe.

I'll get there though...it only takes time.
