This depth will be below parallel, but it will not usually be "ATG".

Better late than never lol. I've only just found my groove so to speak a few months ago. Previously, I've always literally sat on my calves which took all the tension out of my muscles.. Exactly like what Mark described. Now, I still prefer keeping a close stance (shoulder width) and break probably about 2" below parallel vs. going all the way down. Tension stays in my muscles from beginning to end, and I feel a lot more comfortable doing it. I think the biggest plus to doing it this way is that it really slows down the negative on those puppies, thus creating longer tension. A2G for me in the past with anything from 405 + featured me free falling down to my calves and back up.
