If I could get a form check there's really no mirrors on the side at my gym so it's hard to see what I'm doing. Want to make sure I get it right before it gets heavier and I hurt myself.

I know the angle is pretty bad but hope you can tell

Thanks!

ETA: This was set 4/5

    GAH...I need to go home and use MY computer where I can actually get to stuff I want to see.

    Apparently this whole day job thing is cutting into my MFP time. :grumble:

    Below parallel, back straight ... looks alright to me, except lower your gaze so you don't extend your neck and chest so much. Your back, neck and head should be pretty much in a straight line, that means look somewhere on the floor, not ahead to the wall.

    Overall, they look pretty good. I thought your fourth one wasn't quite as low as the others, but watching again, I think I might be crazy. I wish my form were as good as yours! I always feel like I'm stooping over too much.
