I was trying to go ATG as in calves touching hammys, basically as low as I can go, I find that easier than stopping half way down or a bit below parralell which feels like it would be a heap of pressure on the knees.

Not yet, considering it though. Current physio has me doing nerve glide/mobility exercises but after paying close attention during stretching etc I feel as though it's coming from the lower back.

been to a chiropractor?

my little brother had a back issue when he was younger, turned out his hip was out of place slightly resulting in one leg being longer then the other.

My legs are out by around 3cm every time I get trigger point :(

as low as you can go and as low as you can go with correct technique differ vastly. going ATG and compromising form isn't a good thing.

Even though you stretch etc. daily, do you feel you're making any significant progress? Maybe you need to review what you're doing if it isn't effective?

Buy starting strength or something that explains technique in depth, that way you can refer to it whenever you're in doubt to coach yourself.

I'm not sure if this will answer your question Dan, but I think these videos are worth a watch anyway. I watched them last night as I'm having an issue with my knee bending in during squats. It's a five part series called 'So you think you can squat' Here's a link to the first one

Easier to just go and see Matt again. All I need to know is if the butt should be rounding in under/tucking under naturally or whether that should be avoided.

I reckon that's a good idea.

I dont think It's natural to the squat, you're not squatting any lower, you're just pushing your arse down. That's my guess. I'll let someone in the know answer.

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
