    I am starting to think maybe I am not doing it right.

    Thank you. I do have very tight and ...downright clicky...ankles and tightness in the hips. I'll try standing on a plate and add a foam roller to my shopping list for next payday!

    Foam rolling should help a lot. Tight it bands will prevent you from squatting low. Check out a book on Trigger point therapy.

    In addition to all the other good info in this thread, goblet squats can be helpful--you can use either a kettlebell or a dumbbell. Google to see the exercise if you're not familiar with it.
