Manage to shoot a video of my squat


Doing 3x6 65kg at 60kg, I'm suppose to do 3x5 67.5kg but the gym has no 1.23kg plate  doh.gif

This is my last set so I am pretty exhausted after previous 2 sets. I usually squat barefoot because I feel it is more stable for me, this is also the first time I'm wearing compression pants and found that no improvement on weight lifting.
I notice my hips is hyperextended when going up, it is getting obvious starting from 3rd rep.

Could this be the problem I have lower back soreness? How should I fix this?
Could also be I have weak abs/core? Because I don't train them specifically. I tried Captain's Chair Leg Raise today and only able to do as follows:
set 1: 15
set 2: 10 (i rest a few sec and try to complete 15)
set 3: 4 (i rest a few sec and try to complete 15)

Base on the condition above, how should I fix this?
Should I do more abs exercise to strengthen my core (I can do 2x8 10kg Hyperextensions with no problem, assuming my lower back muscle is stronger than my abs)?
If yes, should I do it daily? I notice I have problem to stabilize myself on a 35kg OHP.

My next squat is my PR weight, on Saturday which is 3x5 70kg. Please help  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

Keep your back straight, dont arch the lower back and chest up. Those arch put strains on the lower back.
