@roger5599 Don't have an opinion on squat depth, but I love seeing this kind of content and discussion on this sub! Feels like I'm actually learning something.
@roger5599 I also think people should know about the concept of "progressions". I'm sure you (OP) does, but for those who don't know... any exercise you see can be broken down into easier exercises and people publish a list of increasingly difficult exercises that you can do to build your way up to a difficult exercise. All that to say, no one needs to walk into a gym, put a barbell on their back, and start squatting. You can do progressions.
