the thing about the half squat, wich definitely looks better than the other two exercises, and its more kind to me couse i have done it before, is that you never know when is deep enough.
i though i was reach a plateau in my front squat thats why i start asking about other exercise, but today i did a new  :personal-record: 120 kgs x 3 (going deeper than harry aa video) wich is not much but a big deal for me hehe so ill keep trying to improve there.

About that bodybuilder video, Dude! thats pretty descent for a guy of his size!

congrats on the PR man..

but ya about depth, do you think about depth when you do a running jump? I mean you might, but do you consciously control it? not really.. for half squat just go down and up, that is all hehe.. your depth should get pretty consistent..

ya levrone moved good in that vid but pretty hilarious how bad he got smoked.. looks surreal.

Then you say above parallel squats are safer for the knees than full squats.

I think he was saying box squats are safer for the knees than full squats. I don't know about safer but they are certainly easier on the knee joints.
