Hi,

Been lifting a few years, but only trainign for PL and squatting frequently for 5 months or so.
current lifts are 170/110/205, first competition in August.
Been working through sheiko numbered programs for a while and will continue up until competition

Hello. First impression: you need to squat deeper.Try to get really tight, hold your breath and squat

I second the squat depth. Also spend less time on your set up!
