Question to John: Have you tried low bar squats? They should fit you so much better than high bar squats - you can have a wider stance, less forward knee angle and just sink in your hips more. You also seem to have long femurs so a low bar squat would fit you better + get some hamstring contribution into the squat, as the hamstring is less shortened at the knee so it can contribute to the movement more.

Have you ever tried squatting with weightlifting shoes? because I feel like it would help providing more stability given your restrictions in the squat and the heel elevation

Honestly there's nothing inherently wrong with johns technique... First of all because of the forward knee travel he still achieves very decent knee flexion (way beyond 90 degrees - this says much more from a performance standpoint than looking at hip flexion or alone, and definitely more than the powerlifting standard where you compare top of the knees to hip crease). Second of all he stays in control across the entire movement which you objectively couldn't do if your technique was shit - especially if you shift your bodyweight entirely to your forefoot. That being said the only advantage to him "learning" to squat "properly" is that he'd have more tools in his toolbox... I can squat in all types of ways, different foot angles, distances between feet, depths, torso angles... it gives me options, but doesn't make any one option good or bad...

If I squatted "properly" my hip would look like shredded lettuce. To your first point, that is the whole purpose. Get some knee bend and unbends in yah know.

Please bro - Sort the squat form out, your body will thank you for it! Some amazing tutorials out there, if you can do 100kg with that form you'll be able to add a good chunk more with real form and technique! Subbed to see the progress

Nice work John, looking strong 💪 What's your thoughts on safety bar squats? Do you ever use them in your training?

How do I know if I’m a speed jumper or a power jumper? My vert is a bit over 30 and my squat is 245

John, is THP good for someone who wants to become better at basketball 1st and jumping high 2nd?

I would say jumping high 1st, it's really focused on maximizing your genetic potential and jumping your highest. Which might entail playing less basketball and hitting the weights more
