You're not engaging your post. chain as much as you could.
Remedy: Sit back more. Do box squats. Learn how to do good mornings/RDLs to get your glutes really involved. All this really depends on your goals though, and I don't know/care enough what you're training for(sorry).

Your tailbone is tucking towards the end.
Remedy: Stretch, mobility work, practice, practice, practice. Work an imbalances, tight hip flexor, glute activation etc.

It's not what I consider to be a full squat, definitely parallel tho, so that's good.
Remedy: Parallel is fine. Stance really depends on your goals. So no direct input.

You don't want to come out of your arch tho, both upper and lower back.
Remedy: Work on technique with lighter loads until you can stay tight the whole time.

It's probably neural.
Your gains haven't come from an increase in muscle mass but from better inter/intramuscular coordination.
If you want to keep your gains, put on some LBM(have a day where you do higher volume and also increase kcal overall) while you're doing your highish frequency-low volume squatting.

This was my cat Roger. He was ran over by a car this past June. My brother made this memorial video as a celebration of his life.
He had quite the personality.
He'll always be in my heart.
Enjoy!

Are you doing any dynamic work to keep your bar speed that high? Or is that just how you always do your reps?

All is not lost, hope all is well Adarq, good to hear back from you.

thanks man, ya it's definitely better than nothing but it still really eats away at me that we lost data.. i try to make sure i back up everything, every night, just so we dont lose anything, and bam, corrupt backup files on that uptime vps host.. still have no clue why they were corrupt.. they were 1 gig files full of "error logs" instead of forum data, made no sense, because ive been backing up the same ways for years and never had a prob.

pc ;/

Maybe you should sift through the error logs and fix it up. Problem solved
