Form Check, Squat 160lbs @ 200lb

http://ift.tt/1QYX7aL

Was hoping to get some opinions on my high-bar squat form. This was my fifth set of 160lbs at 200lb bodyweight.

Two specific questions:

  • Am I losing tension / do I have unacceptable buttwink at the bottom of the squat?

  • I've tried to improve my ankle flexibility, but I continue to rely on 2.5lb plates underneath my heals. Without that heel lift, I can't even squat the bar without tipping backwards. Is this an acceptable crutch, or do I need to work harder on flexibility and/or buy squat shoes?
