What exactly is legal depth? I squat until my upper legs are parallel to the ground. Is it lower than that? Heres what I did the other day.

225X 12, Warm up
315 x8
405 x 5
495 x 3
545 x 1
585 x 1

I think I may have been able to get 600 if I wouldn't have wasted energy in my first 3 sets. I am just know getting into lifting heavy. I am 230, 5'11", 14%bf.

Legal depth is breakng parallel. Top of hip crease below the top of the knees.

Oh ok......I am gonna have to ask my training partner, cause I think I may be close or on that. I'm not just saying that cause you just told me what legal is......I know it may sound like that. I just did an imaginary squat as far as I usually go and I believe I'm close. I am not interested in competing quite yet....still have a lot to learn.....but I am wanting to get technique down for when I do.
