Fat Girl Squatting.

As a follow-on from my Fat Girl Dead-lifting post... (Just for fun).
(http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/824518-fat-girl-dead-lifting?hl=fat+girl+deadlifting)
At the end of our session last night, I asked my trainer to take some photos of me squatting, and I made a animated gif out of them. In these images I'm squatting 80kg/175lbs.
I'm not sure I've used the correct last image, as I don't think it shows full depth.
As with Dead-lifts having extra padding around the mid-section is an issue when it comes to squat form for larger women.
Doing squats with a wider stance to allow your belly space is the key.
