Actually here is the vid that Pity originally posted in which I said he was trying to get his butt too low...and consequentally his back to vertical. That's like a myth that is still widely circulated....that you need to try to get your back vertical. Won't work. I hope Pity won't mind if I re-paste the vid here

And here are the "guidelines". I thought I had wrote them out in a list but this is what I said:

you have to look at all the geometries coming together. If your chest is up and shoulders back, your shins not more than about an inch from the bar, your shoulders slightly forward of the bar so that it lines with the scapula, your hips as close to the bar as possible....this will produce your position. I.E. if one element is comprimised then your aren't in ideal position but if each element are in place within the limitations set by the other elements you are pretty much there. After that a little bit of wiggle while keeping the glutes engaged and putting some tension on the bar and you should feel it when it locks into place. It's hard to explain to someone without showing them in person...

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
