Making a good program is easier than Form 3 Maths. Yet people find programs to follow. SMH.

Though I understand the concept, but perfecting form using light weight aint helping imo. I find that during heavy load, 80% of 1rm and above only true form starts to show. Lol

U need use minimum 60% of 1RM for form practice. Varies.

so you write your own program? that's why you look like you don't even lift dude.

Absolutely right. That's what happens when someone acts too smart/know it all. It's much better to follow time tested and proven programs such as SL, SS, and 5/3/1.

Ass to grass is always better than parallel - your hip crease should be below knee...
knee infront of toe is perfectly fine...
watch out for butt wink/your tail bone tuck ederneath when going below parallel..work out on your hams, hip mobility if you have one..

Depends. If you're trying to target the quads then it's better to stop at parallel. Else glutes will takeover more.
